Yes the Buckmaster does use a current transformer however that method
does not provide much if any common mode rejection. As to why one radio
does it and one radio does not, something is different in your system.
Make sure each piece of equipment is tied {bonded} to a common point for
your station. In my case, I use the power supply ground terminal as the
common point. Also, since you have swapped radios around, highly
suspicious would be coax jumper cable being defective or a PL-259 not
being tight. I always snug my PL-259's with a pair of 4" Channel Lock
pliers. With some brands and manufacture of connectors, finger tight
is not good enough.

What I don't understand is my previous radio didn't affect the TV as far as I
know (xyl never complained) so it has me perplexed because the radio shouldn't
matter. As far as the buckmaster ocf, it uses a current transformer
(auto-transformer )to balance the antenna and match the impedance.
