Brett, Glad ur plasma qrm stays put. the stuff like that I get seems to slowly make its way up and down the band. I am having fairly good luck with one of those MFJ phase canceling boxes; it either eliminates or attenuates a lot of junk. DX Engineering makes a higher quality product that does the same thing but I think through 360 degrees (the MFJ covers a bit less range). Mine has made some qsos go from tolerable to pleasant. Noise level usually drops a few S units when its in and one of the best things is that because it is an analog device there isn't any dsp type distortion. Not an ad for MFJ but a plug for the method. Timewave may make one too. Only reason I use the MFJ is that a guy had one new in box for sale at Dayton 2 years ago for $70.
