[RFI] Electric Fence pulsing (will get worse soon !)

[mstangelo at comcast.net]

Oops, fat fingered. To recap:

Turn off your circuits breakers one at a time to identify a local source.

If it turns out to be the electric fence I would discuss the RFI with the manufacturer.

Mike,

My first step in RFI hunting is to eliminate local sources by powering my radio with a battery and turning off my circuit breaker, one at a time.

If it turns out to be the electric fence I try discussing it with the manufacturer.

Good luck,

Mike N2MS

Forgot to say the pulses are a pretty "clean" (if I can use that term)
tick-tick-tick spaced at about a 2-2½ second interval.  Not all spikes are
at S9on 80/160m...sometimes they vary down to s1-s2, then go back up to S9
soon again.
On 20m they are up to S7 and on 6m they are s1-2 with a 6el yagi.

I am only assuming it's an electric fence.  Heck, it could be some new
electronic in my own house !

Thanks
