They are all different, one good way to find out is tune around on your car AM radio it will give you a good idea of rf noise level.JackW4GRJ

We are considering moving to a location that is more friendly to ham radio and especially the performance of my K3. Here in our crowded neighborhood, I have regular S7 noise levels on all the lower HF bands. One home we found (and like) sits fairly close to high tension wires (ie like one lot away) however its in a much more rural area and likely to be more quite w.r.t. the usual man-made RF hash. Does anyone have any experience with living very close to high tension wires (not tool close, plenty of room for wire antennas without any danger.) Assuming nothing is "broken" is it likely to produce RF noise in the receiver? Is this something I should be concerned about? Thanks, and replies off list are appreciated to avoid the wrath of the list moderator <grin> Regards, Chris K1AY -- Life is like Linux - it never stands still. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to w4...@satterfield.org ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
