This was suggested to us initially. We disconnected the ELT

instead of on the ground) and we still had the problem.

So people at the time thought that pretty much absolved the ELT
(it's an old one-Narco 10). I could certainly disconnect and
physically remove the ELT and see if that helps.

It's not that I'm unwilling to disconnect all the antennae in the
plane, but some of them are a terrible PITA to reconnect and I'd
like to understand the theory of what's supposed to be happening
to produce this problem with the power to all of the receivers
turned OFF.

Thanks,

P.S. About six years ago, I ferried a single engine airplane from
Miami to Atlanta. For reasons I won't go into here, I didn't have
full confidence in the engine. Just north of Lake Okeechobee, a
religious broadcast station bled through the airplane's com receiver
and suggested that I "repent now!". True story.
