WA4NJP: ?? for Net Notes .. any comments on the mic cable (Cat 5 style) unshielded
        supplied with the Rig Blaster regarding hum and some distortion.. It seems
        that the mic cable, even if Rig Blaster is off, the cable seems to pick
        up or introduce hum.. Comments please.. JT44 does not seem to be affected.

        great help on 6 meters.. Had some rough wx come through, but no dammage.
