Hi Mark
If you cannot locate the noise source, can you at least
determine it's direction from you?  A simple untuned
loop should allow you to do that.
An antenna noice canceller (ANC) works best if you
can get a pickup antena as close as possible to the
source, relative to the communication antenna, even
if it is just to the edge of your property.
I have both the ANC-4 and the MFJ-1026, and they
both work well on a single noise source.  They can't
cope with multiple noise sources, though, or a single
source spread out over an area, such a power line
that is radiating along its length.
Good luck and 73

Subject: [Elecraft] OT: Anyone use a noise canceller?


Hi all,
        I have a S-9 noise level across the bands and despite some detective
work, I have been unable to locate the source.

I feel that I may have to resort to using a noise canceller in order to use
the bands at the home QTH.

Before I purchase one, I'm wondering if any of the subscribers to this list
use one and if so, how effective are they?

Apologies for the off-topic post but I though I'd canvass opinions before I
buy one.

Thanks, Mark M5MDH
