Hi Mike.
I acquired a Whirlpool Cabrio Platinum several years ago and found it
generated noise that made the lower HF bands pretty much useless. I did
not check the higher bands.
I wrapped ten turns of the machine's power cord through a ferrite core.
This reduced the birdies on 40 meters from S5-S6 to very weak, barely
discernible above the noise level, not moving the S-meter. It cleared up
80 as well.
The ferrite I used was a Fair-Rite 2631814002. It is mix 31 and has a
3in inside diameter, 4in outside diameter.

Whirlpool Cabrio Platinum washer
I just noticed that our washer is producing broadband noise about
every 15kc. I pulses with the tub movement. I am seeing it on every
band. Even on my 80 vertical about 100 ft away.
Has anyone else seen this and is there fix?
