Recently a kind of nasty birdie has shown up on 50.125, which makes listening to the calling frequency frustrating. The Autonotch and beat cancel on the TS2000 will handle it pretty well, but still not as well as if it wasn't there. I have tried turning off/unplugging several things in the home (computers, VCR, DVD players) with no luck so far. One ham had a problem with his internet router, so I tried unplugging that also, along with the cable modem. No luck there. Has anyone on the list have this problem before, and if so, what was the final cause of it? It peaks about S3 from the NE direction, and will get weaker when I move the miniquad to the direct south or NW. That suggests that it could be outside the house, and might go drive around the neighborhood a little this weekend to try and localize it, but would like to eliminate things in the house first.
