Thanks Ed! Even without social distancing, that can be a challenge at best. The neighbor probably bought some device or another that is making noise. Let's assume he bought a whole basement worth of

Jim, I have read your materials -- and have used lots of type 31 material around here choking the common mode. I hadn't really checked 20 meters, until it soaked into my thick skull I may wind up doi

Thanks Rolan, No solar panels around here and the noise is still there at 3:00 AM. We were able to track the noise to an area the size of a block or so with a portable shortwave receiver based on sig

I thought I would update folks on the interference case mentioned below. I got lucky! Staying on public streets and in the neighborhood park I was able to track the interference down to what I though

My last problem was tracked down to a neon sign in a neighbors garage. I had several months of blissful relatively low noise operation, but now have a new RFI issue. You can see a recording of it her

The facility to my east is a firestation, and then the airport. I have not checked the firestation very closely, but will do so as several folks have suggested. I have walked most of the neighborhood

Don, Thanks for the suggestion. The 847 in the video does two meters in all modes. A swing of the 2 meter beam yields no noise. I can tune down to the airport VOR signal on 118 MHz and copy it clearl

Jim, Thanks for the info and links. They were very interesting. It looks like I need to invest in an SDR of some kind, as I have no way to produce a waterfall wider than a couple KHz right now. I've
