Especially since my Flex 5000, no antenna plugged in at all, have a -135db baseline.... Plus in the ant, and a really good day is -100db noise floor. Depending on band of course.

Urbanoid that I am, I wish I had a noise floor at -145dB!!!

Thanks, Dan.  I will make recording and pic and send to you off board.
  Just
noticed today, need to correlate observations more with weather as you
suggested

Subject: Re: [Flexradio] weird noise source popping up

Mark:

Over the past few months I have been logging and tracking power line noise,
which turns out to be a composite of power line noise PLUS a variety of
local noise sources...

I have seen some "noise humps" across the baseband (these come and go),
also

have seen a few different wave forms travel up and down the band(s). I
think

some of this is spread spectrum, some is computer or power supply EMI, and
others remain mysterious.

Your noise floor is probably dropping on the Inv-L because it is less
efficient and is not picking up the high-freq signals as well as your hex
beam.

You may wish to keep track of date/time, temperature, humidity, and other
factors...see if there is any pattern to when the noise appears. Also, if
you have rain, does the offending signal change?

If you can make a WAV or WMV file of your noise, I can compare it to
signatures I have been logging here.
