1] YHBT THL HAGD
OK, maybe we are not trolled....
2] Put the PC case back together: EMI shielding is not blocking the stray RF from the cats collar system, which is a classic FCC part 15 issue.
3] reorient the antennae, both the transmit antenna and the reciever antenna.
4] enable CPU clock spreading in BIOS.
5] change frequencies of the cat door system.
6] Baluns on the power cords
7] EMI filters for the power sources of both the PC and the collar system (one for each, do not share one between them both).
8] make absolutely certain that all circuits which were designed for grounded electrical power do, in fact, actually have electrical grounds.

Anytime someone reads this thread after diligently searching and researching, they might see my post alongside the refresh rate issue, and the thread may help more than this one problem.
