I have been monitoring my noise on my receivers and the big issue is a
constant, day and night, high level noise centred exactly on 144 kHz.
Is this a frequency that is familiar to anyone? Googling it has only
brought up comments of some 20kHz solar inverters talking to their
control panels down the mains wiring at 144 kHz, with some chatter
about inverters going noisy and blanking out their own talk back
frequency.
My next door but one neighbour has solar panels on his stable roof,
but I don't THINK they have an accumulator bank, they just feed back
into the national grid. we don't really get on too well so I am loathe
to approach them unless I can be sure the noise is from there.
There's also a huge, multi acre solar farm opened about 5 miles away.
I would imagine some old geezer with noise near his beloved LF Ham
band frequency would have little impact on its operation, so i hope
it's not tat. Any ideas on what uses 144 kHz, and how to locate the
source?
Here's a screen shot of it as it is at the moment, but it doesn't
change, day or night, and its amplitiude stays pretty constant, no
turning on and off I have ever seen. My RX is on my TX aerial at the
moment.
