 It might pick it up on the 6V power cable.
 You could try putting ferrite beads around the power cable to reduce this.

Thanks for your suggestion. I removed a ferrite bead from my USB cable and
put it on the power cable. Tested it again. The interference was still
there. 

I suspect the interference goes to the d'b directly, becasue when I use the
enclosure and metal box to cover the d'b, the interference decreases
dramatically. But those cannot reduce the interference low enough for our
test. Maybe we just need a M1A1 tank.

 Hi everyone,

 hope it receives nothing but packets from my pc.  But the d'board can still
 get packets from other wireless card. Then I put the m'b and d'b into the
 black enclosure. Packets still come in. And finally, I put everything (m'b,
 d'b, black box, attenuator) in my metal drower. Most packets are shielded
 out. Some still can be caputured and demodulated.%-|
 
  why is the d'b able to hear others even when I connect attenuators and
 cable to its antenna?
