The only thing that comes to mind is add some more cable=85.

You may find you suffer in part because of the length of the cable, a
tuned=
length at the problem frequency.

By adding a half wavelength of cable you may reduce the effect?=20

=20

Total guess on my part but adding a coil of CAT5 or =914 wire=92 may make
a=
difference. Shortening it would have the same effect but you would probabl=
y need to move next door for that?

I think I have found the cause, it seems that MW/AM radio is the culprit.
M=
y
BT line between the poles, is picking up radio, that is the same frequency
as some of the ADSL bands:

Question for the ex-BTer's:

Is there anything that can be done with the BT line between my house and BT
poles, to reduce this, eg a 'special' BT shielded cable to reduce the radio
interference, filters, etc?
