Ringing the doorbell causes interference on one of my 2811 strips

Ah I see what you did there Sarge. Tuned the tin foil. Changed the inductance while keeping the cap the same value. Thus shifting the tank circuit to a new harmonic.

Last night I was outside working on my lights for halloween, the lights were all turned off but the controllers were still running. I was going to go inside the house but the door got stuck so I rang the doorbell a few times, thats when I noticed the first 3 pixels on the window frame closest to the doorbell just randomly lit up, I rang the doorbell a few more times and I could get those 3 pixels to randomly change colours...

 

I don't mind this issue because as soon as you send another command to the strip it goes away instantly and when the show is running nothing happens.

 

This is very odd to me,

the whole house is using 3 core pigtails and 3 core extension cords.

You should take advantage of it and add that "effect" to your show...
