Perhaps the ideas presented can be of help to someone.

Firearms and explosives work well for off-site noise sources. You'd be amazed at what slug from a 12 gauge shotgun can do for power line transformer noise. It's recommended that you fire from no less than 30 yards out and wear hearing protection.

Have had a lot of noise increase around here over the years.

Read through this thing... and think I'm doing everything that I'm not supposed to (except welding galvanized steel... I don't have a welder).

Interestingly, last night, MW was calm. Have had a buzzing across the vast majority of the band for weeks. Also saw neighbors out yesterday (who usually aren't around) so think they turned something off.
