Great news.  Were the RA helpful with advice, filters, etc?

Still snowy when tuned to a video recorder on playback with the
aerial lead unplugged from the video?  Then probably mains borne.
Interference comes back when the aerial lead plugged in (still
watching the playback)? Then RF is being picked up on the outside
of the TV download and flowing down into the equipment.  A common
problem - the inside of the coax is a nice 75 ohm line, the outside
is a nice antenna.

He wants to avoid the men in black terminating his hobby.

My last word on interference:  Don't despair, no matter how bad,
there's always a fix.
