[Elecraft] P3 Noise signature

I usually check into the No Cal Net on 3533 each night.  I've begun to 
get predictable noise with a unique signature on the P3 WF.  It's a 
series of bands, the first [around 3545] is the widest, they get 
narrower up from that and the separation seems to be about 40 KHz.  The 
higher components get narrower but aren't any weaker.

Occasionally I've see it come on to an otherwise quiet band, and all the 
"bands" on the WF drift some before stabilizing.

I have a screen shot from the P3 I'll send, anyone have any idea what 
this is?  I never see it in the daytime on any band, just in the 
evening, which is suspicious ... plasma TV?

If it's my neighbor Casey, I'll just need to live with it, we don't do 
battle with our neighbors.  Besides, Sampson, their cat, gets along with 
ours and shares his food.
