And yes, your message slipped through before I had the 'retard' filter in place. So answer all you want fat boy, you're filtered now!

What was causing the problem? At first, I thought it might be an external
mixing spur, where the CHU signal was mixing with a MW broadcast station in a rusty rain gutter. That does occur in my area, since I am in close proximity to three 50kW MW broadcasters.

If you're getting CFRB on 6075 you'd better check that receiver! ;-) I think I've figured out my problem here.

I've had some problems before along the same lines with what I believe is my neighbours metal barn siding. Getting some mixing products here with my local on 1260, that's the problem.

Before you go off blaming a rusty rain gutter look for problems somewhere on your long horizontal wire like ice or crud across insulators. The UNUN box and coax lead-in cable electrical connections could be loose or have cracked solder connections. If that looks OK then the distribution amp might be the problem. Take it off line and see if the problem goes away. A local AM station could be in the AC power supply. Do you have a power line filter to your radios? -- Telamon Ventura, California |

When we were kids, we would also run into that problem. At several spots on
the MW band, the images would pop up, and then disappear. There would be a clicking noise when they would start up, as if a switch was being turned on. It didn't occur to us back then that maybe the wind was blowing some sort of rusty metal junction, such as a rain gutter, until I read about that possibility several years later.
