keep us informed... i have had a noise like that for years, the closest i can 
get is a house about 1/2 mile away that has satellite internet.  i had the 
previous owner turn off power to the house and it didn't change, but there is a 
possibility the computer was on a ups.  mine goes up to about 4MHz with peaks 
every 30khz or so if i remember right and it kind of pulses like that.

I am looking for information on what to look for, or solutions for, from
which may be a neighbour's satellite internet equipment interference.

The interference I am hearing is on the HF bands sounds like an intermitted,
buzz - buzz - buzz, sometimes every 1/2 second but more random then regular.
On my Icom Pro the noise pattern is almost bell shaped.

I found the noise source using an AM portable radio with a loop antenna.
The house in question is over 1 Km, (just about a mile) west of me.

I am trying to contact the dealer of the equipment, but would like to know
if anyone can give me suggestions that I can pass on to their technician, if
indeed the internet satellite equipment is the actual source of the
interference. 

Any ideas or suggestions greatly appreciated.
