The RF Noise Identification Website (http://www.ve3hls.com) was updated
tonight with 
the addition of 14 new noise files in MP3 format.

search for the one that I have on there from 75m and see if that's what it
sounds like.  Still don't know what it is though... just a note, the first
sentence is wrong, I just sent him a note about it... I don't hear it on
20/17/15 only around 75/80m.

> Hi, all.  After several years of having little interest in the 80M band,
