Thanks to everyone who responded (on and off list). As always, incredible
knowledge and experience here. It’s very helpful to know powerline noise
doesn’t normally represent itself with these types of humps spaced ~50 kHz
apart. I can then focus more on my loop and Tecsun 660, without being
distracted by the active dirty poles.
