[RFI] Noise centered around 20 meters

[ROLAN CLARK]

Gary and all,

Curious, have you tried google earth to look at the location where the noise may be coming from.  If solar panels are there they may have been there when the google earch picture was taken.

Do you  think it gets less at he end of the  band you are listening due the the selectivity on ur rx/antenna?
Does it show up on other bands.
The repition 'pulsing' rate sounds close to 60 hz.

I had my computer play a 60zh square wave and it sounds the same rep rate to me.

Some more ideaa

I have some 'noise' that starts around 11 MHz and gets stronger as I tune up the band. It is about S8-S9 across all of 20 meters and finally plays out around 15.600 MHz. I made a video showing the issue and placed it on Youtube here:
