IC cable to address RF coming from nearby FM station


Hello,

I'm looking for a good interconnect (balanced)  cable to try to suppress RF coming from a radio station a mile away. I've read herein that Canare Stargard makes such a cable, but I haven't been able to find a retail outlet for the Canare brand.

Thanks, Phil

Or Google Mogami cable. 

That's a good thought.

@converge  Did you troubleshoot the problem to be the cable? If not, it could be a component, any other cable, power supply.

I agree something is acting like an antenna. How long is the cable run from tonearm to phonostage and where is this unit located? Is it earth grounded to the buss bar in your service panel as the rest of your system should be?

Phonostages can be the root cause of RFI. Changing phono cables can sometimes cure this problem, relocating the unit may also be a solution.
