Hi Jim, The noise is strongest on 20 meters and above so I can use the SMA input. I have a 3 foot in diameter hand-held loop that tunes 40 though 10 meters using a variable capacitor. It would be har

All, My neighbor is having new solar panels installed today and was wondering about RFI. Are they known to cause interference? Thanks, Tony _______________________________________________ RFI mailing
All, As I mentioned yesterday, my neighbor installed solar panels on his roof (thanks for all the replies). The installation was completed today and it appears to be causing RFI. I doubt this is a co
Pete, The noise was repetitive, but I don't recall how far apart the signals were. It disappeared a few hours ago so I'll have to wait till it pops up again to make another video -- I'll post it ASAP
Pete, I made another video today and it appears that the noise is not evenly spaced. I found it on the following 20 meter frequencies: 14128, 14158, 14210, 14233, 14280. The spacing is roughly 30, 50
All, I'm located in New York and the heading on the radar-like signal is 180 degrees south of my location (5 element mono band Yagi). Not as strong as it was earlier. Youtube video here -- http://www
All: Noticed a new wide band noise on HF. It's about 30 kHz wide and repeats every 120 kHz. It is directional and is strongest on 20 through 15 meters. It sounds a lot like line noise, but the patter
All: I'm hearing a 30 kHz wide noise every 120 kHz. I can hear it on several bands from 20 meters through 6 meters. It shows up at night so my guess is that it may be related to a street light proble

Constant day or night? Is it 24/7, or only after sundown? Pattern, like 18 hours on, six off (typical for growing). Does it correlate to when the street lights are on, or maybe a timed light on a por
All: The noise was absent all day until 7:00 pm this evening which is about 20 minutes before my local street lights came on. It could be, as Kurt mentioned, that shadowing is causing a defective lig
All: The noise that appeared this evening at 7:00pm may have something to do with AC power coming into the house. I noticed that the noise changed when I turned the shack light on and off. This video
All: Thanks for all the great advice. A local offered to stop by and lend me his battery powered FT-817 to sniff out the noise. The plan is cut the power and turn on each breaker one by one. That sho
This has the potential stink of one or more wiring errors INSIDE your home. Jim... I setup the computer to monitor the noise 24 hours a day. It's been a few days now and it's only come on at night be

All: Just an update on the noise: Turned off all breakers in the house except for one that powers a single A/C outlet in the shack. The noise was still there. Friend has not come through with his bat
I do but the noise persists with that breaker turned off. I even took the light off the house and disconnected it just to make sure. Tony -- Wes Attaway (N5WA) -- 1138 Waters Edge Circle, Shreveport,
