Smart Lumber Kiln RMS: MC Noise Test (CAT5 Twisted Pair + Shielded Cable)

In this episode of the Smart Lumber Kiln / OTGRND RMS series, I try the obvious hardware fix for noisy moisture content (MC) channels: better cabling. I rebuilt one sensor run using CAT5 twisted pair, and I also tested a shielded AV cable to see if interference on the long runs was the cause of the noise. Spoiler alert: it didn’t help. That leaves two big questions: Is the noise coming from something other than the cable (ADC/high-impedance behavior, probe/wood interface, grounding, routing near AC, etc.)? Should I keep chasing MC sensor noise, or shift focus to kiln performance improvements like airflow control and baffling? I’m also considering building a handheld test unit so I can iterate quickly in the workshop instead of climbing in and out of the kiln — assuming I can reproduce the same noise outside. Question for the community If you’ve dealt with long-run analog sensors / high-impedance ADC readings: Would you keep debugging MC noise, or move on to airflow/baffling? What would you try next: reroute away from AC, add a bleed resistor/RC filter, change excitation, or something else? Drop advice in the comments — I’ll test the best ideas in the next video.
