Many thanks David for that in-depth post. Ultimately it would be much better to filter the mains supply before it gets to my outbuildings, I actually have 3, all containing valve radios I listen to regularly. The strip is great but a pain having to unplug and move it if I want to enjoy a particular radio in a diferent location.
Now I'm starting to understand whats going on I'll have to look into making some sort of permanent wound/ferrite filter.
