Aye, Tickmike, I regularly dial up the BT"quiet-line" number, & everything is tickerty-boo. ADSL problems is my beef.
3 years back, myself with my DF Rx & an experienced older OR guy with his LW/MW Tranny walked up the road a bit & easily detected the RFI from a neighbour's menarge & paddock. Also, for years it can be heard on my big static Eddystone 730/4 Rx. Thankfully they are one of the neighbours, further along, who have recently told BT to "stuff-it" & changed completely to Vodaphone 4G. Over the 2.5 miles back to the exchange there will no doubt be sheep & cattle electric fencing in odd places. I also know of at least two grain drying sheds with either 480V split-phase or 415V 3 phase machinery. As I said in an earlier post a few days ago, I plan to "walk the line" back to the edge of the village, weather permitting sometime, & see just what I can detect RFI-wise.
Mind you, a big article in today's local paper - - BT just awarded a huge £385 million contract to quickly roll out FTTP to remote areas, with Scottish west coast islands & the Highlands getting priority ! So Weaver's problems will soon be over, & he'll be able to flog off surplus ADSL enhancing stuff to us lesser privilaged mainland teuchtars.
Re my BT & domestic computer equipment - all info on page 2 a few posts back.
