I've seen Ethernet cause problems for the VHF radio band just like this. Try unplugging the Ethernet and seeing if the noise is still there. You could also try knocking it down to 10-base T. Apparently the Ethernet signal generator has a harmonic that resembles the VHF radio band or so I was told.

Ethernet crystal harmonics. The crystal on Ethernet is 25MHz. So your hitting them with the 9th harmonics. This bleeding is worst with PoE powered devices because it couples into the DC power over the cat5 cabling and if the power supply is not nice and clean it will couple into the AC system as

I've seen power supplies do things like this in the past. Get someone on the tower to pull one at a time till you figure out which unit is the real cause of the trouble. I'd also ask to see the SA readings, the wave form may be of help if you can post a pic of it. marlon - Original
