We bought a new Keurig coffee maker which does a pot or also the pods. It puts 
a huge noise out to the ham frequencies. Have to turn it off to get on 80M

House we just moved into, we did new under-the-counter lighting.  Once I
got the ham shack started, I saw s9 noise on 160 and 80. Turn them off, and
it becomes quiet.

Other led panel lights produce no noise whatsoever.

But now that that is identified, I will be tracking down some other noise,
likely in the neighborhood.

Had a similar issue moving to a new QTH. It turned out to be a bad
transformer in the neighborhood. You could call in an RFI complaint once
you rule out your own QTH and asked them to sniff around.

You can also sniff around with a 2 or 6 meter SSB rig if you have one.

HI Andreas

Sorry to hear about your noise.

I doubt your noise is related to digital TV as that is a long way away in
the frequency world.  It is pretty common to assume that it is not on
your
own property.  I saw one guy who said the same thing and then found out a
year later it was his new dryer that was noisy even when they were not
using it.

I would not be surprised that most of your HF noise is within your own
property unless you did some significant research by  holding an AM radio
near each and every power cube or charger for phones, etc.  There are not
too many that are quiet.

I use my KX2 to find most of my HF noise issues and I must have tossed
out
15 bad chargers.  The ones I could not just toss away, I had to add Mix
31
chokes to.

When you moved into your new house did you replace all the light bulbs
with
LED bulbs?  They can be noisy.

If you haven't taken the time to do an indepth study on your own house,
you
should.  You might be surprised.  I would plan an all day exercise when
everyone is out of the house.

Hi,

I might suspect something else...

Have you done a power off test of your home yet?

I live about 1.6 miles from some tall antenna towers broadcasting
digital TV (KBCB) at 208 kW ERP on channel 19 (500 - 506 MHz) and on FM
(KWPZ-FM) at 63 kW ERP on 106.5MHz - according to FCC info on KBCB and
KWPZ-FM. Ever since I moved to this QTH a few months ago, I am unable
to
use my K3: solid S9+ noise on all bands using a makeshift dipole strung
up
on some trees outside my house. I’ve tried to locate the source of the
RFI
within my home but so far have been unable to locate any RFI emanating
from
within my home. Could it be that the TV/FM stations antenna towers,
which
are within direct line of sight from my house, might be responsible for
the
RFI?
