Frightening the yaks, Mark Zenier just had to say:
Yes. My best guess is ultrasonic pest repellers.
[SNIP]
Sunbeam brand pest repellers "DRIVES PEST AWAY
This dual technology Pest Repeller uses both Ultrasonic and
Electromagnetic technology to help fight against pest. Use against mice,
rats, ants, and spiders. Built in AC Outlet, night-light and digital
clock are for added convenience. Plugs into any standard 110v outlet.
One unit recommended for large size room. UL listed. Cannot ship to
all states." $34.95, 2/$65
There are other (cheaper) ones that don't mention "Electromagnetic
technology", too.
I wonder if the FCC and FTC know about this CRAP.
That's something I never would have guessed.
How much circuitry does a device have to have before Part 15
applies? It'd be interesting to get one to play with, and see
just how noisy the little suckers really are.
Oh, I noticed something else with the RFI I'm getting... I was
trying to zero in on a SSB signal, and from the pitch sweep it
sounded like the RFI "carrier" was sweeping up or down the
bands...
Just FYI, I have a 7600GR with an AN-LP1.
Always something odd... keeps it interesting.
