[Elecraft] 160M Birdies?

[Paul Clay]

I don't have Ethernet, but I do have Cox digital 
cable/internet.  I also have a switching power 
supply (an Astron), that previous use had caused 
me to believe was pretty quiet, RF-wise.

I too get a heck of a lot of noise right on 14060.

In the last couple of years here in San Diego, CA, 
the random noise and "signals" I could pick up on 
ALL of my other HF ham equipment (a receiver and 
another transceiver) has increased by an 
incredible amount.  It really is getting to be 
ridiculous - more noise than signals virtually 
all the time.  Wonder if BPL has already come to 
San Diego?
