CB Radio interference


Hey ya'll, im livin' in brooklyn NY. Anybody ever get dudes talking on CB radio coming through the phono amp? always at about 6pm im playing tunes on the TT and i get a faint conversation in CB code over laying my music! anyone else in a metropolis ever get this and if so, is there a solution other than not listening to Lp's a 6pm + or - an hour?

Casey33: "Fortunately he died.I still say I had nothing to do with that". That is a good one!

I had experienced a one time similar occurance . While playing a CD, a few transmissions came through EXTREMELY loud and clear!
Judging by conversation, the sender was mobile and one block away, passing through town.
Thanks all for the support… I will continue to explore and experiment with these ideas. but im not goin for the tent;). I do have some copper plates that i may try in various configurations around the phono stage/interconnects.

I live in new construction… every corner was cut during building… the electricity sucks… I can even hear emi when someone rings the buzzer!

Well, thats what you get for living in Brooklyn. If you want, I'll give you my uncle Vinny's number. He'll take care of that CB problem for you.
Long time ago I had problem with CB sound coming at full blast from TV speakers and land-line speakerphone (not cordless). Every time it happened there was unmarked police car with long antenna next to my building. It could be that he had high power transmitter out of whack polluting on all frequencies.
I had radio station coming through my phono awhile back.
After trying all sort of shieldings, ferrite rings etc, nothting seems to work. Then I tried moving my phono, turntable around and the problem disappeared. The problem disppeared after moving everything about 6 inches so it does not have to be a big move either. Sometimes you just get a hotspot in certain location in the room.
