RFI on th Wire

Hi all,
Need some help with the AAG 1-wire wx station. I have a 5000 watt AM
radio station less than a quarter mile from my house. During the day
the wind dir won't display properly. At sunset when the station shuts
down the wind direction works almost perfectly. I have sheilded cat5e
and also powered the wind instrument directly with 5 volts. If I
bring it inside with a very short cable it works. I also have a
barometer and humidity/temp sensors hooked to the same 1-wire. These
work flawlessly. The 1-wire devices are daisy-chained with the wind
instrument being at the end. About 40 feet total distance. I know
it's RFI because its been a constant problem on other electronic
devices for a while. Btw this is all running on a BS2p.

Regards,
