[TowerTalk] Powerline noise-Timewave ANC-4

[Chris BONDE]

What did the power line noises sound like?  How did they detect from where 
the nosies were coming?

I have some noises here that seem to turn on when I am trying to make that 
contact.  I am wondering if the Sodium vapour street lights that keep on 
flickering on and off create some noise.  Also how would I check if where 
the noise is coming from?

Hopefully a very inexpenisve method.  I have a loop that a ham built.  It 
is a computer cable (printer?) on a squre frame, connections to make each 
of the wires loop around and a round, cap tuner for the curcit.  Now I 
should be able to connect a small portable Rx to this and find the source.

Any ideas or comments?
