Yes, Simon, you will likely find that the sloping signals drifting
across the waterfall are caused by local switched mode PSUs. Perhaps
your own?

I have found the P3 causes some interference on 2 metres. This was cured
quite simple by placing a ferrite clamp-on at each end of the power
cable between the P3 and K3.

I hope that helps.
