All this talk about speakers prompted me to resurrect a pair of Apple amplified speakers that have very good frequency response. All was well until I tried 10 and 6 meters - then got the "thumps and bumps" in the form of a loud hum. Tried FOE (ferrite on everything) first with no success. Opened up the speaker and found not one bypass capacitor. I put one (.01ufd) across the power plug, and after zapping the amplifier module, one across each of the stereo amp's power inputs. Perfectly quiet now. Monty K2DLJ
