Re: consumer-grade audio equipment / RFI suppression,

HP
Last summer I kept hearing noise bursts on 6 meters on my K3 that seemed to follow a beat -
Neighbors behind me were playing "music" with lots of bass notes on outside speakers.
I went out with my trusty Icom R10 handheld rx and sure enough the noise bursts
coincided with the bass beats . It was oscillating on 6 meters on bass peaks!!!! That was only one afternoon
and apparently it blew itself up -or they re routed speaker leads or whatever -still hear the audio
from time to time quite a bit lower level but no 6 M spikes.
