I don't have any of those, but I have a computer like hash noise that
repeats every 30 kHz or so in the 20 - 10 M bands.  I'll have to try turning
off the APC UPS.
There is so much digital crap in the air now with HD cable TV, WI-Fi
routers, etc. it is hard just to get every thing turned off.  Maybe even W/L
electric and water meters......
Go hold a transistor radio tuned to the high end of the BC band to your
Electric meter and hear how much hash there is.

Harry,

I don't know if they are all as bad.  I found that turning it off wasn't
enough, I actually had to unplug it.  At that time , my antenna was about a
foot above my flat roof house.  Now here in Texas with my antenna so far
from the house and shack, I don't have any problems.  My wife and I had more
than one discussion about her using the light when I was on the radio.  Just
remember, you may have to actually unplug it if its causing noise problems. 

Kerry
