[SixClub] Noise

[Zeb Palmer - KD7EVS]

Hope you don't have any neighbors who want to enjoy 6m ;) 



While we are on the 6m RFI subject...   I do a lot of 6m mobile.  There are
at least 5 red lights here in the Boise area that emit a beeping sound that
seems to have two different tones in it and you can hear a bit of uneven
oscillation on it. Seems to beep about 5 beeps per second (rough guess). I
can hear it on and around 50.125 usb.  One of these days I'll stop and
listen to it on other modes and record it.  It's bout S6-8 or so.

I have an electric fence for my dogs that makes a ton of noise on the radio.
I just unplug it when I fire up the radio.
