Local noise (was: Re: [ICOM] RE: Sherwood Engineering and DSP, 706)

Is there any recourse to FCC under these circumstances?
I believe, their folks might be of some assistance.  I have
heard of this being done in the past, if I remember correctly.

I have the same set up as you do. I still have some noise but I tell you the 
noise on 40 is the worse. To further complicate all of this I have a 
neighbor across the street that is generating a good S-8 noise and my 
antenna is picking it up.

I had the Utility person come out and he verified where the noise was coming 
from. We visited the neighbor and they refused to let the gentleman from the 
Utility company discover exactly where the noise was in their home.

In the house I am running power off the sealed battery for the 706. The only 
way I can use the receiver is along with digital speaker, DSP is to turn off 
the preamp and turn on the attenuator.

Now on mobile the DSP works much better like a dream but not in the apt. Any 
Comments?
