I have the same fuzzy TV reception when in the bedroom on the external antenna and I turn on the LED reading lamp over the headboard. I have read most of the posts and since I know the antenna wire runs up there close to the 12 volt wires I have self diagnosed that is what the problem is. Some may recall I installed a new Jack Antenna and shorted out one of the overhead lights with a screw. Fortunately I was able to pull a new wire through the ceiling to repower the light.
Someone who knows about these things always writes in and says to use a .001 Microfarad 35 Volt Ceramic disk Capacitor. I went to Radio Shack today to pick one up and could only find ".001 Microfarad 500WVDC.
Its the 500WVDC part that concerns me. It is a little tiny thing....two in a package.....but will this work?
I keep looking at the "500" and the "VDC" and wonder if it is too big (a value/voltage) or something to be effective.
Thanks in advance.
