Well, it's the night before the contest and the noise is still there. It's a 24/7 noise and I can DF it in one direction with yagis on 40-10 meters. It's pretty broadband and it has a sputtering soun

My experience is there is no noise when the lamp is fully on and when the lamp is fully off. In between is where it can be noisy... some dimmers are "deadly-noisy." Those are pretty constant as long

This particular noise is 24/7, which should eliminate a lot of possibilities. Thanks for your observations. Every little bit helps . . . maybe 73, Jim My experience is there is no noise when the lamp

Hmmm ... We can work with this. Any ham who is tying to track down 'noise' should have at his disposal a battery-operated AM radio for the utility of its highly directional ferrite 'loopstick' antenn

Thanks for the tips. I have to say that over the past 5-6 years I've gotten pretty good at tracking down any kind of powerline arcing noise using the techniques you describe. I've got the directional

I used a TH-F6A with a short SMA-BNC cable, then a Pomona BNC->Banana jack and a loop of wire about 6 inches in diameter taped to a piece of cardboard to hold its shape. This gave me truly excellent

Good news! I looked at the scope waveforms of the demodulated audio at 14MHz and at 150kHz carrier frequencies. It turns out that there is a very pronounced negative-going spike on the waveform when

Leigh, Is that just a single turn of wire? And, is the far end of the wire terminated in any way? 73, Jim jack and a loop of wire about 6 inches in diameter taped to a piece of cardboard to hold its

Jim, Yes, I used a single turn, maybe it was 8 inches in diameter. I hooked one each to the BNC binding posts to make a loop. I taped the loop on the cardboard to keep it circular, and put the Pomona
