[K6BW] White noise question

[Steve Johnson]

Thank you, I have the antenna down between the two buildings. I will have to
move the antenna up above the roof line to lower the interference. Have a
great day.

I suspect your antenna is located in a high noise
environment, and the fact that the antenna is
reasonant on 20M is the reason the noise is loudest on
that band.
