I suspect it is TV related, but I'm not sure exactly what it is.  It runs 24 
hours a day, so if it is an individual TV they must not ever turn the TV 
off.  We have cable running by the house, but we don't subscribe.  Some have 
suggested the possibility of a leaky cable, but why would those frequencies 
be transmitted over the cable?  Why would the cable transmit anything 
fundamentally different from what a TV station transmits over the air?

I need to modify my R-1000 to run off a 12v battery and do some rf sniffing. 
  I have thought about the idea of the cw signal, but if they keep it on 
24/24 I don't know when would be the best time to transmit.
