I'm not hearing that noise, but the birdies are driving me nuts on 6M. 
There are many frequencies where a birdie will show up on the P3, so you 
tune for it and realize it's a birdie, not a signal. But the whole 
purpose of the P3 is to help find signals. I'm seeing birdies 6 dB above 
the noise floor!

Wayne -- this has been an issue for a LOOONG time. Is there a fix on the 
horizon?
