I am new - and recently began providing feed from Marquette County, MI.
I really think the scanner feeds are a great idea as I have listened to scanner 24/7 since age 16 in my job as news reporter.
Big problem is a hum in feed.
Thought the Radio Shack ground loop isolator would fix problem.
It did not.
I have tried it on three different computers and have moved scanner to different rooms.
Only other partial solution I could find online was stringing a wire (with alligator clips on both ends) from the ground post on my scanner to my computer (not very feasible in my case including I am not familiar with guts of scanner to even find ground post). It apparently only reduces hum.
Please help - I want to continue feed but feel no one will listen with hum.
any ideas - suggestions.
I have uniden bearcat BC350A
Thanks for your time,
