Bugger the Topfield PVR5000t (Digital HDD recorder) has become a major source of spectrum noise. The power supply must be having issues. Need to see what I can do. For now if its plugged in and turned on you have a hum at about a beat a second. Turning it to stand by reduces the hum beat / cycle but still have a high noise level / floor. Unplugging it stopped the broad source of wide sprectrum noise. The wife ain't going to be happy with that one. Well while she is still having a sleep in, lets continue with the band scan :)
