What most hams report as problems is buzz........buzz, at the PRR. This is
almost always caused by defects on the fence itself. Splices that are good
enough for the fence to work can be RF noisy. Gate hooks are another source of
noise on fences.
For a good background article that may just convince a neighbor to work with
