Filter?
The trap dipole works good on all bands but 80 meters.
We have so much noise it is just about worthless.
We have tried turning off as much equipment as possible in the weather
station with no success.
So - there is something that is causing the problem - but - whatever it is
we can not shut it down.
Any suggestions for a good in line RF filter for 80 meters that may help
eliminate noise?
Open to any all suggestions from homebrew to a good reliable manufactured
filter.
Any and all suggestions would be appreciated.

First, I would check that antenna against a plain ol' dipole to make sure
its not the antenna.
(Or use a portable AM radio to check for local noise.)
If the plain dipole exhibits a noiseless reception, then throw out the trap
dipole.
