Hello T-B'ers, I have power line noise at my QTH that is causing me a lot of grief on 160 meters. At 1.815 Mhz, the noise is a continuous S9, when the rig is in the AM mode. The noise is not as notic

[snip] Hello Brad, What I used to do to find noisy poles was tap them with a 7 pound hand sledge at about 5 or 6 feet up from the ground. If there was loose hardware, a portable AM radio tuned to a

I use one of these: http://www.arrl.org/qst/2006/04/hanson.pdf I did modify it and make some design improvements. If you decide to build it, I can send you info on what I did to it. Jerry, K4SAV ____

I know of two types of noise (there may be others) that typically generate low frequency noise and their sprectra into the VHF and UHF ranges are quite limited - a micro arc inside a transformer and

Brad, While there are many noise "profiles", the typical profile for arcing insulators on a power pole is that the noise will have a 120Hz buzz, and will have a spectrum that monotonically decreases

Power line noise can be a real problem here sometimes living in the bush...I sometimes have a problem after a long dry spell then a foggy night...That really produces line noise with dusty insulators

Tapping the pole with anything isn't a good idea and really unnecessary. I just ended a 6 month issue here with TONS of help from ARRL HQ and there is a real long story here but bottom line it comes

Brad - You've gotten some good info here so far. I have similar problems here about every two years. My last one lasted over a year and I spent a lot of time arguing with the power company and also a

Years ago I had a noise on the Ja beverage that raised the noise abt 10 db over normal. Searched and searched about a 3 mile path with no results.. Built a small Yagi on a broomstick coupled to an av

This is true however, it should be interesting to see power company behavior going forward as the FCC has recently ruled costs for finding source interference must be borne by THEM! Pete W2PM The bes
