More and more shit to be found on these sensitive bands the last few years and indeed I think it has something to do with the wireless connectivity that emerges everywhere around us.
I had my radio aligned and since this summer between 25 an 30 Mhz there's a hum like sound coming from an electrical motor so it seems and it's killing off the weakest most distant stations which makes a DX QSO impossible :-( And it's not just this radio, my other rigs show the same problem...
I've heard the same bleeps whilst driving to Bridlington... on my Ranger 2950. I thought it might be a ham as I've heard the same around my home QTH (Nottingham) and know it to be a ham who loathes freebanders. Appalachik 26-TM-911
there are alot of weired sounds at the moment on 11 meters its a pain in the arse when trying to DX, I think that alot of it is domestic equipment as I do get it around some houses where I live, then nothing in the sticks.
I am guessing PC's gaming stations and wireless net works might be to blame.
Considering it's local traffic, it's most likely radar or something similar. Some sort of tracking beacon signal. I believe that forest services also use 11M (local) to track animals with triangulation.
Are ya sure it isn't ya alternator......lol lol lol

did you ever think that its some CW blead over?
that 2950 you have DOES have CW. get a CW key and talk morse code to them. XD
iv got the old 2950, all conversions done to it, plus some that only a friend on mine himself.
