RE; voltage filters and transformers can be OK for controling spikes or
rises in voltage,Im thinking perhaps drops in voltage may be the cause of
signal loss at the base station antenae? the easiest way to tell if you dont
have a meter,is plug-in and incandesant light bulb fixture to that outlet
and see if it dims during use.could even be a bad pluggin socket or bad
transformer brick.its going to be hard to spot except when its actually
screwing up.hope this helps in your search
