Craig,This is similar to my setup, except Ant 2 goes to a 1kw amp, and out a SteppIR vertical, and Ant 1 goes straight to a little helical dipole. They're about 100 ft apart, or so. Many other Flex RX2 are also run in an amplified environment. Gerald has written that the receivers are robust,

Looks like a square waveform but the top level appears like a shallow w with three distinct peaks and two valleys Reoccurs ever 130 KHz. Most noticeable on the hex beam at 40 feet when pointed east. 10 meters -130 dBm against a noise floor of 0135 dBm 12 meters -125 dbm against a noise floor

I would suggest reviewing some of the typical AM gathering frequencies on this chart: http://www.amwindow.org/freq.htm Over the past year or so, in the U. S., there has been increased AM activity between 3705 and 3720 KHz. Also, I would drop any references to AM Windows. There are no AM Windows.

It could be a switching power supply of some sort, perhaps from a wall wart or other appliance.  These supplies produce  recurring noise at multiples of their switching frequency and are easy to identify due to this recurring nature.  Mo st I've seen repeat every  60 to 100KHz, although I did

Mark: Over the past few months I have been logging and tracking power line noise, which turns out to be a composite of power line noise PLUS a variety of local noise sources... I have seen some noise humps across the baseband (these come and go), also have seen a few different wave forms

You probably don't operate that much. Listen on 1.885 3.885 and tell me that the term AM window does not reply. On Friday, January 27, 2012, Ian Wade G3NRW g3nrw-ra...@ntlworld.com wrote: ___Original Message_ From: manual...@juno.com Date: Fri, 27 Jan
