Attempting to track down a bothersome very intermittant noise and looking
for some ideas. Don't have a decent way to record it, but may need to set
something up if I cannot make headway.
Noise is pulse, appears on at least 80-20, strength higher around 20.
On the lower freqs, it is more of a static rush but time compressed, it is
also seemingly random, twice in 5 seconds, nothing for 40 sec, once, and
so on. Seems to be there almost any time of the day or night.
I would think static dischard or random arcing, but on 20m the sound is
very un-arc like, thing what would happen if you mixed a high pitched
"beep" with someone saying "quip".
It would not be so bothersome, but on 20 the pulses are often +40 or so,
and screw with the AGC and generally make listening to weak signals on the
headphones unpleasant.
I would assume this was some sore of pule charger or similar, but it
_never_ displays any kind of pattern.
I would think intermittant arc except for the sound on 20m.
Has me thrown and looking for ideas.
