Hi Bob!

I have seen this problem and it is either one of your computer power supplies
or your neighbor's. Mine was my neighbor and I fixed it with a W3NQN AC line
filter on the neighbor's computer.

W3NQN filters are available through WX0B now.

I tracked my noise down with my Icom R-10 handheld scanner.

Hope you find it Bob!

73,
Tim K3LR
