Do you actually have a high broadband noise level, or is your display
simply not set properly? Set your waterfall to low level -130 high
level -80 and see how 40 meters looks. Mine is medium blue. I can
darken it by setting the low level to -120.
To set the waterfall color, click SETUP DISPLAY LOW LEVEL, etc.
Unfortunately, optimizing one band changes it for the other bands.

While this is not strictly Flex Radio, it occurs to me that there
may be someone on this reflector who knows something
about using the amazing capabilities of the graphic display to track
down local noise problems. I have a 5000a with a 2nd
receiver. My location is plagued with noise. While I have been able
to track down the noisy power line insulators
successfully and have the power company graciously fix them (with an
accompanying reduction in noise), I am stumped
by the other (probably multiple) noise sources at my QTH. Is there a
way to use the graphic display capabilites of my 5000a
and Power SDR to get a clue as to the source of the noise? My Power
SDR version is 2.3. On most bands, my waterfall display
background is yellow to green and not the blue to black of images I
have seen on the web of other ops with their Flexes.
Thanks
