Hi Mal and LF
I would like to be on for two way QSO's however its the old story here I have a high noise level and am not hearing any thing other than local signals.
I was on the Suffolk coast for this years holiday. I only had a Kenwood TS50 and a 40 metre dipole up. I was hearing just about every thing on 500kc/s. Its not as though I live in a high density area apart from a neighbour either side the nearest other is about 1/4mile away but I do have 11kV at the bottom of the garden which to date has not been a problem. So I suspect an insulator but the noise is not general it is not affecting HF at the moment.
I have an 8 foot Octagon tuneable and rotatable loop that I am playing with at the moment but so far no real improvement.
Sorry for the tale of woe but we are working on the problem.
Chris XIZ has suggested X band so I may try that shortly.

Listening on 500 recently it looks like the GAS has gone out.
