[RTTY] 80 meters noisy NOT!

[Bill Turner]

Well, DUH!
 
Spent about two hours on 80 meters in the WW trying to pull stations through. The band seemed unusually noisy and lots of stations called me that I just couldn't print. Very frustrating.
 
And then..... I noticed my external USB hard drive was turned on. I knew that was a noisy beast but I had forgotten all about it. Turned it off and unplugged the power supply (noisy all by itself) and like magic, the band went quiet. Lots of signals.  
 
My apologies to all those who called me. Fortunately there is still lots of contest left. Please try again.  :-)
