When was the last time anyone has checked their ground rod bonding?

I don't have any problems with my rod.
The guy in the article says it's good AC is not that complicated...then proceeds to outline a pretty complicated approach that most home studios can't/won't follow.
Talking about using "a different circuit at the panel"...is IMO kinda meaningless, when you consider that everything will still tie back to your main power supply from the road....and everyone else on the street is tied in to it, until there's a transformers that creates a new feed..etc... (I'm just saying it in very general terms).
Your neighbors electronics can very well be causing your problems. The power company does nothing to filter out anything from house to house hook-ups.
AFA doing the iso-transformer thing he mentions...yeah, that would certainly help, but again, not a simple or inexpensive solution.
Also, as I mentioned in another post recently about dirty power...the power companies everywhere are now pushing the new digital/AMR/Smart meters...which generate all kinds of EMF noise and radiation due to their 24/7 WAN transmissions and cyclical power spikes and AC/DC conversions at the meter, and they dirty up your power even more...so the power company is not concerned about providing "clean power".
I think the best, non-industrial/non-commercial, build from the ground up, solution is to do what you can at your end of the power feed to clean it up.
The power distro system I described in my earlier post here, does a really good job for me, and I am not plagued by AC issues. I'm additionally having my power company remove/not install any type of digital signal transmission meter at my house...and I am going to try and get an old-school analog, spinning disc meter put back, but that might be a long battle, so for now, I have to settle on a basic digital readout meter that doesn't transmit, but they can still dirty up your power because of the switching AC/DC system they use so the digital meter can run off your high-voltage power coming in.
It's one of the worst power system implementations that they have come up with...but they're only focused on making more money and having more control of your power usage. Not to mention...there are plenty of sources talking about health and privacy issues that these "smart" meters bring.
Their best argument is to say that we are already poisoning ourselves with WiFi and Smartphone usage in our homes...so what's so bad about adding a little more EMF from their meters.
