These signals are frequency stable and not drifty. Shutting down the
house-mains with the receiver battery powered does not kill the QRM.

SO, it looks like something somewhere is generating this junk that runs from
the BC-band to >20MHz.

Shutting the main power off won't stop cable modems and routers from operating if they have battery backup. Some of these devices can be quite noisy. Also, do you have any UPS units keeping other equipment alive during power outages?

Good luck,
