Don, Some of the "older" of the newer generation of "instant-on" TVs maybe the cause. Many of them kept quite a bit of the circuitry "on" for the "instant on" feature.
This can make it even harder to locate and isolate, unless it can be unplugged Bob - N0DGN -----Original Message----- From: Donald Chester [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, April 13, 2003 5:22 PM To: amradio@mailman.qth.net Subject: RE: [AMRadio] re: mystery interference >I know this isn't the right attitude but I can't help thinking that >maybe a discrete KW of CW on 3.579545 might help them make the decision. > >John, >WA5BXO I suspect it is TV related, but I'm not sure exactly what it is. It runs 24 hours a day, so if it is an individual TV they must not ever turn the TV off. We have cable running by the house, but we don't subscribe. Some have suggested the possibility of a leaky cable, but why would those frequencies be transmitted over the cable? Why would the cable transmit anything fundamentally different from what a TV station transmits over the air? I need to modify my R-1000 to run off a 12v battery and do some rf sniffing. I have thought about the idea of the cw signal, but if they keep it on 24/24 I don't know when would be the best time to transmit.
