[SEDXC] ComCast transmitting on 28 and 50 MHZ ??

[k4pi]

I wrote a letter recently to ARRL to see what they know about Uverse as they 
apparently are using most of the HF spectrum that should remain contained 
but apprently there is a lot of leakage.  Broadcast band up to 30 Mhz 
anyway. This may be the beginning of a long battle against RFI and also TVI 
will also be generated.   I have talked with some hams that had Uverse and 
they related that ATT was never able to resolve the RFI/TVI problems the 
encountered once moving to Uverse.

Any one have a contact at the local Comcast office for RFI issues?

I have traced all the birdies on 28 MHZ to the poles and overhead lines 
where the cable junction boxes are. Strongest signals are coming from the 
ones with open slots. Wehave over head power and phone also, but cable looks 
to be the source.

Here is a partial list of RFI spots in the band

28.305
.320
.350
.365
.380
.410
.425
.440
.470
.485
.500
.515
.548
.563
.593
.610
.622

Some are as strong as S-7 . I used a mobile rig on second battery and rode 
around the 'hood, I found the problem at 20+ poles in my area.

Anyone else here any of these? There are more in the 50MHz range also, 
including 50.150 and 50.165 Makes weak signal work tough!
