I had something very similar several years ago. Turned out to be a
battery charger for a golf cart about a hundred yards from my house.
 I found it by snooping around with a portable short wave radio. When
I contacted the maker of the charger they were very cooperative and
fixed it promptly. Fortunately the homeowner was also cooperative and
didn't mind me snooping around his house.
