Re: [vox] [OT] Smoothing out the powerline signal?
I got an APC UPC. How would I know it's a model that does what you
described?
BTW, I do have my monitor plugged into the UPC, but I still get monitor
"jerks" whenever the fridge turns on/off. It's either not the right model
or isn't good enough to block the fridge's powerline distortion.
