[CVCC] Power Line Noise found!

[H. M. Motley, Jr,]

A guy from Dominion Virginia Power (Ken Lyons) came this morning. I showed him via the Omni VII sweep and let him hear by ear the buzzing noise I am experiencing on the 20 meter band and higher QRG.  He jumped in his truck, tuned in the noise on his equipment,  drove around the neighborhood, and was able to find the noisy location on a pole about two blocks from me.  He will report it to maintenance and follow up with me to make sure it gets fixed!

It sure will be nice to hear weaker stations (below S5) on 20 meters again!

My thanks to the local CVCC members for giving me the contact information for the noise guys at the power company.

Yipeeee!
