Meanwhile the background level of radio noise has increased a huge amount in my lifetime, recently
went to a seminar at Fermi Lab about trying to put numbers on just how bad it is. AM radio and lower
ham bands (and everything else below channel 2) is seriously degraded, we are forced into the
line-of-sight frequencies to get through.
If you had spent as much time as I have in shielded rooms trying to limit noise (radio and audio),
you might start to grasp the problem. And a starting induction motor does not generate any radio
frequency noise except for the instant the start contact opens, a universal motor generates noise
all the time but it can and often is contained and filtered. Bruce Roe
