so i have a late model procaster with it's interface box.

 

we tired to hook it up at my friedns apartment.

 

i mounted Tx on balcony. grounded the ground to the faceplate screw on AC outlet.

 

i hooked up everything up minus the barix and tested the signal and it got out beautifuly covering everywhere i thought it would cover with a unmodulated carrier.

 

so i procedded to hook up barix to tx via the procaster interface box and plug it into xfinity cable modem.

 

the resulting audio was very low and distorted and there was a motorboating sound overtop my stream audio from barix.

 

as soon as i dosconnect coax cable from modem or barix from modem there is a breif time where the audio is loud and clear till the barix buffer empties.

 

plug it back into cable modem and audio is distorted and motorboating again.

 

i bring it down here to my apartment and hook everything up the same way and i can't replicate the issue here and i have the same exact service and modem he has.

 

any idea's, i did try a audio ground loop isolator with no luck.

 

i'm thinking the cable and ac are at different ground potential IE: not bonded together at service entrance per NEC but either cable service is ungrounded or on a seperate ground from electrical service grund.
