So my question is, is all that RF going to interfere with my network
connection or my phones? Any thoughts or recommendations?
So far everyone has addressed the issue of your rig interfering with
your phone and your network so I won't spend much time on that except
to add that, even if there is RF on the outside of the coax it
probably isn't going to cause a problem with your networking gear as
that uses twisted-pair and RF would show up as common-mode cruft
which will get canceled out in the ethernet coupling transformers.
OTOH, RF noise from your networking equipment might get coupled to
your feedline. Remember you are trying to listen to very weak signals
and ethernet, while well-crafted so as not to radiate, does leak just
a little. I would probably choose to route my feedline away from my
ethernet wiring just to reduce noise pick-up in your rig.
