I use an Timewave ANC-4 to reduce noise on the low bands at my
location. On 40 & 160 meters I can reduce the noise almost to S1, but
on 75 meters I can only reduce it to S4-5.
I use a noise sense antenna which is a dipole 4ft on each side about 4
inches off the ground and parallel to the power and telephone lines.
Anyone have one of these units and having any ideas I might try to
reduce 75 meters to a lower S-meter reading?

All my low band antennas are verticals.

You might try using a vertical whip for the ANC-4. I use the built-in one
on my MFJ-1026. Even so, you may just be experiencing general ionospheric
noise at that level if your antenna is fairly good.

Is your QTH urban or rural? Here in urban downtown Chilliwack, BC, I get a
lot of noise sources and, of course, the 1026 can really only take out the
loudest single source.
