[BC] RF interference problem

My recording studio has a serious problem with RF interference from a local
Christian station. The station is 10 miles away but there's a huge FOX TV
and radio tower less than a mile away. Judging by their program content it
sounds like a fly by night operation that probably doesn't have competent
engineering, but I digress. I'm assuming the transmission is coming from the
FOX tower. Anyway, the radio signal bleeds into all of my high end pre amps,
power amps, and monitors. I've tried moving things around and even covering
everything in copper foil. Nothing stops the holy RF from bleeding through.
I'm trying to create music here and it's driving me crazy hearing religious
nonsense in my monitors and headphones, not to mention it's wreaking havoc
on my productions, as the only way to stop the bleeding is to use a noise
filter set very high which also harms the sound quality. I've considered
contacting the FCC and reporting the radio station. But I'll present the
problem to the engineers here first?
Thanks in advance,
Shelby
