I've uploaded some videos to YouTube that show the problem I'm having. This is my first attempt at using YouTube and my first use of the video feature of my new Sony A6000, so bear with me.

What these show is the noise that is wiping out my HF/6M operations. This stuff covers the complete spectrum from 160 to 6 meters. I'm in semi-rural location and have walked about a 1/2 mile in all directions with a Sony ICF-SW7600GR receiver, using the telescoping antenna and cannot pinpoint a location. My power company (co-op) is trying to be helpful, but the knowledgeable guy has left the company so I'm dealing with a rookie.

Furthermore, in addition to the short-term, cyclic intermittency (5-10 minutes) evident in the videos, there can be longer term periods of quiet, which Murphy dictates occur when the power company guy is looking for noise.

I'm hoping there is some expert here that can point me in the right direction.
