KOMA is in EM15 and transmits 50KW on am. You might check that out.

Subject: [SixClub] Interference question?


I still have a noise source on 6 meters located to the E of my station.  S7
at times with a raspy sound like a diesel truck going up a grade.  Noise
still goes away when it's raining or after a heavy dew.  Noise is persistent
from 40 mhz to 60 mhz.

 Took my trusty IC-W32A handheld and a portable 2 meter  homebrew 3 el beam
and climbed to the roof of my backyard shop building hoping to locate it and
tuned to 135.000 mhz and beamed around.

Beaming E I hear MUSIC on 135.000 mhz.  Tracked the source and found a spot
2 blocks away that seems to be the strongest (darned strong).  Even there
the music seems overmodulated and is not clear at all just strong signals.

Now, back at the station I tune the 706 to 135.000 mhz  and point the 2
meter beam East and have interference but no music.

My electric company interference crew has repaired the hardware on 15 poles
in my area and reports the area clean.  My cable company reports the area
clean with no cable leakage (and in fact CH 18 145.250 does not show leakage
on my rig).  I haven't been able to locate this same music on any of the FM
freqs locally.

Any ideas guys and gals???
