I am trying to precisely locate a strong static source, were familiar with
High tension lines arcing at the insulators on very dry days. this however is
the opposite , it only occurs when its raining or has been raining and still
wet out it is local . its only about 1000 Ft away but when I aim in the
general direction there is a good S9 static, popping sometimes sounds like
oil burning in a frying pan or a motor boat its constant for the most
part and particularly most strong on the 6,10,12,15M bands. With a portable
radio I have narrowed it down to 100 Ft radius in area near the center of 2
streets, There is transformers, caps and splices in some the power lines in
the area but have yet to find the exact location of. power line crews have
looked in the past without finding anything but this has been going on for 10+
years any ideas on exactly what might be the culprit? again once its no longer
raining or wet out it
completely goes away making it more difficult to find.
