I just joined the group and pulled an all nighter digging through the archives. I've got a number of questions about apparatus for finding power line noise which I will get to shortly. For sake of ma

In case it may be of interest... I recently bought an MFJ-856 and found it desirable to make some modifications. It was completely swamped in some of my strong noise areas, making it impossible to na

Thanks. At present I doubt I will need to use HF to track this down but we will see how it goes. I'm finding considerable ambiguity when tracking at 135 MHz with the MFJ-856 but I think it would be b

I've been looking around (for days actually) trying to find an inexpensive UHF AM receiver I can build or buy to augment my power line tracking capabilities. It has to be very inexpensive and fully p

Interesting, Kurt. Oddly this is happening even on weaker noises that only move the MFJ-856 meter to half scale or less. I was fully expecting to find noise radiating from ground and guy wires! But s

The specs for the Icom R5 and R6 receivers only list AM sensitivity in specific bands to 330 MHz. Does anyone have one of these? I would like to verify that it will receive in AM mode above that. I'v

If I read the specifications correctly, the TH-F6A receives AM all the way up to 1300 MHz. It receives SSB and CW up to 470 MHz. A very interesting radio. I will keep my eyes open for a good used one

Hi Dave, I know you were joking, but actually I could try that and see if the S meter reading changes. It might give some clue... 73, Paul _______________________________________________ RFI mailing

Charlie, My total attenuation (series connected) is 50 dB. There are places even that is not enough - where the meter will sit pegged throughout a ~400 foot area. These are *not* areas where the atte
