So, what you would have to do is buy a bunch of #9 AWG solid copper wire from China, so it is only 99% pure,
acid etch the surface, paint it with tar and wind it up in a snake sex twist. Or pay them to do it for you.

The idea is sound, the application questionable and the comments about signals under 400 Hz, ones not part of
the power wave form, not being any sort of problem because the power supply of electrical equipment will
filter that noise out, is laughable. If you have power transformers, they will pass anything under 400 Hz
and the steeper the rise time to the noise signal, the better. If you add caps and common mode chokes you
choke your power supply. If you have a big mother, true noise isolation transformer, with extra secondary
windings you can use to provide a feed back to a snubber winding in the primary, with appropriate signal
shaping M&M's and Tootsie Rolls, you have a chance of stopping that stuff. But that transformer had better
be twice the power you need and 3% regulation, or it will choke your power too.

If you have some spare money floating around Romy, try one of the cables and use it from your PP2000
to the amps, just to see if it will strip the grunge that EVERY switch mode power supply, applies to all
available antenna surfaces.

Just for fun I have provided the official skin effect loss ratio's by wire size as it relates to frequency, as an attachment.
