Hi all,

I did replace the rca audio cable with a cat-5 cable that is shielded.
So now there a cat-5 cable all the way. With just one connection point
on the way. This should prevent all electronic noise from getting into
the cable.

For some reason the rca audio cable that I was using is not good enough
for this.

Regards,
