Hi,

What if you come all four twisted pairs into a single pair?

I can't try this on my postage stamp lot because no reasonable beverage will fit.

  That means the twisted pair is picking up signal.
I terminated it hoping that would quiet it, It didn't.
  I corrected the wiring error, But the feed line pickup
makes the BOG useless.

On a previous BOG I used #18 twisted speaker wire and it
picked up very little RF when connected the the radio.


   Do I need to do anything with the unused pairs,
that would help?

  Any thoughts on how to prevent RF pickup by the feed line?
