Equipment / Re: Noise around the house

« on: March 13, 2022, 0907 UTC »

Samsung refrigerators with "Digital Inverter" create spurs all across HF, also large flat screen TV's are another source, some even generate noise even on "stand-by" mode.

"SVO" Olympia Radio, Athens, Greece, not been heard on 6321.5MHz CW since September 2020, has anyone heard it of recent?  Its 8MHz brother is still active and heard each day.

Please submit date/time in UTC and RST if you have heard 6321.5MHz SVO this year, appreciated.

Has anyone heard "SVO" Olympia Radio on 6321.5KHz CW recently, last heard here in late 2020, not heard since and have not seen recent reports of such station.

Maybe it has been "retired" although the 8MHz transmission is still active and heard each day.

Reports or news on this much appreciated.
