- I'm hearing a new local RFI source. It produces a 1 second burst of broadband noise at regular intervals of 3.5 seconds. I'm hearing it on 80 through 15 meters. In AM mode, it sounds like it's modula

- I'm in the middle of a city, so there are no electric fences or horses nearby. I was able to hear it with a portable receiver just now. As I was standing near a neighbor's house which seemed a likely

- I did once track down one of those, but it had the characteristic spectrum of a switching supply. This one emits absolutely flat broadband noise, more like a spark gap. It is on for about 1 second ev

- Yes, I thought I was getting close this morning, then it went QRT. I've been tracking it with a small 20m loop. I can hear it just down the street in the right direction, but can't find a good null.

- I've tracked it down to a neighbors' house. It was easily detected with my VHF tracker. Unfortunately, the homeowner is not cooperative. The source seemed to be associated with a TV and modem/router

- RFI propagating from a source close to the ground (less than about 1/4 wavelength high) is always vertically polarized unless the ground is extremely nonconductive. 73 Frank W3LPL Hi Frank, I was als

- I'm not sure what kind of ballasts they were, but a neighbor installed LED replacement "tubes", and they created terrible RFI. (OK, they were only 50 feet from my RX loop.) I'd recommend just replaci
