[RFI] New Interference at kk0sd

[donovanf at erols.com]

Hi Gary, 


In my opinion your next step is some kind of directive antenna 
so you can start narrowing down the location of your RFI 


A simple three element 6 meter Yagi might be a good start. 
W3KX mounted one on a short mast in the bed of his pickup truck 
and its an excellent RFI hunting antenna with excellent sensitivity

My last problem was tracked down to a neon sign in a neighbors garage. I had several months of blissful relatively low noise operation, but now have a new RFI issue. 

You can see a recording of it here:

I have turned all of the breakers in my home off and run the radio from a battery and the noise remains. 

My neighborhood utilities are all underground. 

There are no solar installations in my neighborhood, and the noise is there at night anyway... 

The noise is not detectable on the AM broadcast band, but starts around 2 MHz and runs to at least 6 meters. 

It is there 7 days a week 24 hours a day. 

It is not detectable from my pickup when I drive the streets of my neighborhood (checking both AM broadcast and Shortwave). 

If any one has heard something like this, I would love to hear what you found. 

Thank You for your input and help! 

73, 
Gary "Joe", kk0sd
