Ken, This is great. These people who are dialing 560 AM are likely just dialing their radio to a spot between local broadcast stations. Almost any frequency around that band will do just fine. It's very possible a scanner radio can be used as well. I sometimes do this sort of thing when driving around town and sometimes hear strong RF noise coming from traffic lights at intersections. These lights are apparently exempt from FCC regulation. The stated reason I have heard is they are exempt for reasons of public safety. It's really about keeping costs as low as possible. Where I live in Northern Colorado, they caught a guy running a grow operation because an REA electrician who was replacing a pole pig transformer and noticed an abnormally high load from one house. I am not certain how it all transpired but further investigation found a fairly large operation. All the best, Doug Douglas Powell http://www.linkedin.com/in/dougp01
A interesting use of RFI…
