Peter,

in case the noise source turns out to be local it can help a lot to have
the antenna, including matching device, at a remote spot (back yard) and go
with a well shielded. coax to the shack.
I did the test at my QTH with a small ferrite rod antenna : going about 10m
away from the house decreased QRN level by more than 10dB. BTW : I found
out that the major source of QRN were the mains (220V) that seemes to act
as a huge antenna.
