*Any idea what can be the source of this noise.*

I continue to be amazed that new members don't seem to study the long history of a reflector like this one before posting questions. The noise source is clearly some electronic device with a clock (because it repeats at 9kHz intervals), is being radiated by wires (cables) connected to that noise source, and picked up on antennas connected to the receiver. The noise source could be the clock in a microprocessor-based products (almost any modern product), or it could be a switching power supply for anything from a battery charger to a wall wart to low voltage lighting to a doorbell.

There is also the strong likelihood that the noise source is in your own home, perhaps even within your ham shack. It is also quite likely that one or more Pin One Problems is involved, both in your shack and at the noise source.

A good starting point is downloading and STUDYING (not a quick read, but reading over and over for deep understanding) of http://audiosystemsgroup.com/RFI-Ham.pdf
