Topband: ...power line noise

[Roy Koeppe]

Asked:

"...Right now I'm running about 10 to 15 over S9 at the time. One
hundred and sixty meters is useless to me. I have to use my horizontal
antenna...(etc.)?"

George,

It's nicer if you include your call sign on postings. No 'tricks' are
going to lessen that noise any significant amount. You need to file an
official complaint with your power company. In the USA they are
obligated to help you out. Mine fixed me up many times over the years.
