My location has been plagued by similar sounding noise on 80M for at least the 
last year. Recently I turned off all branch breakers in the house, except I 
left one breaker on for the rig and the main disconnect. I don't have a pan 
display to show you, but I can tune across similar signal peaks at approximate 
40 kHz intervals.
I'm suspicious it may be coming from the utility, maybe the "smart" meter 
outside the house. I realize I need to run the rig on Batts and turn off all 
inside breakers but one step at a time. 
I'd be very interested in knowing what's causing Dick's noise.

inquired here about AFCI problems. I had the electrician install an Eaton 
panel, TVSS and AFCIs. Fortunately,  only 1 AFCI so far has tripped a couple 
times, probably due to my RF, I presume. Maybe a clip-on choke or two on the 
Romex will solve that problem.
