I once traced interference to a 2 meter repeater to one of those preamps in the loft of the garage. Six miles away! The owner was only so-so to deal with. They had switched to cable, and this was a 3

Peter, is the noise reduction caused by your fingers conductively touching the caps, or by downward pressure? If the later, use an insulated alignment tool and press down on different areas of the MB

Ash, the other have pointed out that you need to go higher frequency. Check around your local repeaters and someone must have one of those really cute FT-817's. Has 144 and 432 built in. Then use a 2

Uverse is a copper fed very high speed dsl. The fiber comes in to a neighbor node box (rather noticeable). This is where the IP data is changed from fiber to copper. The reasonable length of copper f

Frank, Have you ever experimented with using the very common FT-817 and a 2 meter/440 beam? You can turn the AGC off, and receive in the AM mode. I just might have to go outside and "find" a bad pole

Steve, Find where the IR sensor is on the TV. Cover that with electrical tape and make sure it is covered by testing it with the remote control. Now, key up your radio. I have seen interference to IR

I don't think it is KFBK. My guess is KCTC, on 1320 KHz. 3rd harmonic is 3960, and even cooler, KCTC operates from 2 different sites. The night site is 5 kw and is located by Antelope North and Antel

There is a good possibility that the 144.16 is not the primary frequency, but a sub-harmonic of the output (times 4, 5  or 6). Time to be a good neighbor, and help them with it. Many folks, for whate
