The noise dropped a notch or two yesterday afternoon and I could hear some weak Germany scatter again when beaming to the east/south-east, but it didn't last. White noise appeared suddenly and squashed the German scatter, arriving in two stages. One bar of noise to begin with, then the noise becoming stronger after two seconds. Maybe it's a computer firing up and bringing in different bits of circuitry in stages.
Yesterday, I discovered I have at least TWO new noise sources. One to the north (a white noise/mush type) and a regular clicking noise (audible over fully quieting stations) to the south-east to compliment my other south-easterly white noise/mush type. Oh, I mustn't forget the various growls, drifting carriers and whistling noises which appear at various points across the band.
Even our neighbours shouted us this morning to report a loss of digital television signals due to interference. They have my Televes DAT45 on their rooftop, pointing straight at Belmont, which is line of sight and visible. Time to bring in OFCOM again. They have already visited me FOUR times this year. Perhaps we can now get something done. The problem is, all these noises are intermittent, so I won't hold my breath.
I started listening at around 09:00 this morning and German stations were coming in well again thanks to a reduction in noise. I was tuned to a near noise free SWR3 from Linz on 94.8 for five minutes when a sudden howling/whistling noise appeared, taking it out completely, along with any other German scatter.
So I am now having interference interfering with the existing interference. Beat that!
Good DX!
