S9+40 Noise

[NS0R]

Hi all,

Just wanted to say thanks for hanging in there with me tonight.  I've got a
major problem with power line RFI at the moment.  Ever since the weather
cooled down I've been fighting with S9+40 noise coming from 2 poles
adjacent to my lot.  I may have to take a break for a few weeks, as there
is only so much the K3 NR/NB combo can overcome.

Hopefully I can get this resolved by the power company quickly.


73, Morgan NS0R.

Morgan,
There's a lot of that going around. If you can get the pole number, contact the power company and let them know they are having a problem that is interfering with your HF operation. Give them the pole numbers. They may ask how you found which poles.

I've been doing this for a number of years. Our local power company only has a few techs to handle an area of about half the state, but they do respond. I would expect they would come out to fix your problem also. Just make sure they know you are a ham operator.

73,
Barry

Even if the law wasn't on your side, it is in the power
company's best interest to correct the problem. It is burning
power that no customer is paying for, so the power company has
to eat the costs.
