I wish it were than easy ;-)  I can hear it fine and get a good bearing here at home 
with 4x9 element yagis, but I can't hear the noise at all with the dipole or vertical 
in the car.   I just have to hope that the intermittent noise is on when I drive out 
to the spots along the line where the noise is coming from....  VY 73, Lance
