I probably won't make it.? Service for my broken oven coming. If they should come early (very unlikely) I will be with you all for lunch and will bring an interesting story.? Joe On Wed, Jan 29, 2025, 9:38?AM W2NED <W2NED@...> wrote:

I'll be there, but I have a doctor's appointment at 2:00, so I'll have to leave about 1:45.

Re: RFI Videos
开云体育
Vince,
Hopefully RG&E gets here that quick, but I doubt it.? Air Force probably gets a bit more attention than me.? I have narrowed it down to two poles.? #354 and #352, and I think both of them have a problem.? #354 is worse.? They are just west of Parson Acres.?
Drive by with your AM radio on an empty frequency.
I've read that bad lightning arrestors are usually the main culprit, with bad insulators another possible cause.? Rarely it might be arcing to some other metal such as bolts and staples.
RG&E no longer has any info on reporting these issues on their website.? Even when you call the number that says "Talk to a Representative", you get to listen to a series of menu prompts about gas emergencies, power outages and paying your bill.? When I finally
got to a person after the fourth menu, they told me I picked the wrong one.? It apparently is in the queue of some mystery department that has no phone?number.

My Story:
During the mid sixties while I was stationed at Lockport Air Force Station, we had some serious noise problems at our GATR (ground to air transmitter receiver) site—I believe we had 20 channels of UHF equipment remoted to Fort Custer AFS in Michigan.? I think it took us a week to sort everything out and got Niagara Mohawk to replace an arcing lightning arrester on one of the power poles to our site.? Of course, at the time everyone was blaming us for not properly maintaining our equipment… LOL Vince |

RFI Mapper Image
开云体育This is a map generated by the RFI Mapper program by W4DD.? I used my Yaesu FT-857, a cheap GPS unit, and a CAT cable connected to a laptop as I drove around my neighborhood.? This was my first attempt.? The FT-857 only has 10dB increments over S-9, so anywhere there is a black marker, it is at least 10dB over S-9, but not 20dB. I measured on 10 meters, AM mode, Fast AGC, no noise reduction
switched on.? The color legend on the left corresponds to S meter
readings.? The blue marker near the center is my QTH.? The other
blue marker slightly to left is my initial suspect power pole. ?
There were a few dropouts while I was driving which may be
responsible for a couple of anomalies.? I still need to do some
more work pinpointing the source.? Many private roads and
driveways in this area that I haven't looked at yet.? Most have
power poles. |

Re: RFI Videos
Back in the 60's my father, WA8ZMS, and I ,WA8NZQ, had an RF problem that was corrected with a new transformer on the pole near our house.

From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Brian Donovan - K2AS via groups.io Sent: Sunday, January 5, 2025 12:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [xarc] RFI Videos I have made a couple of videos of the RFI I am experiencing, if anyone is interested. I shared these with W4DD, who has experienced this issue and helped others. He agrees that it looks like power line HV arcing. I am hoping to track it down to a pole before I call RG&E. There was a guy from RG&E who gave a presentation at RARA, maybe 15 years or so ago. Unfortunately, it is not on RARAs website. That would have been nice to re-view. -Brian |
