Your symptoms sound like Stuart was on the right track when he suggested
that the interference is being re-radiated from something. It sounds as if
it is not inside your shack though.

Exploring the outdoors is a good idea to see if you can identify any place
where the interference gets stronger as well as weaker.

Of course you call has a lot to do with it. I'm still getting AC hum reports
on my sig from time to time.
