Tom, If you can, and if you suspect an interview home source, put your rig on battery and cut power to the house. It is always good to clear up in house stuff first unless you have a specific issue t

Tom, Needed more coffee... Saw the video.   Do your neighbors have new solar panels? Inverters on the panels could be in play.  Does it quiet down after dusk? Try taking a portable radio for a walk.

I have also had very good success with doing this. Many oscilloscopes, even old ones, have the option of using the power line as a horizontal sweep source. If LINE is selected for the horizontal swee

Tom,  From my  perspective we are missing a few key pieces of information. Information such as: 1) What kind of antenna was used on the radio in the first video? 80m dipole? 20-15-10 meter beam? etc.
