Turns out it was NOT the hub. It was the camera I had plugged into it with CAT5. The camera is looking at my antennas so I can see where they are rotating, but the wire runs a ways. Probably radiates nicely, and conveniently right in the 2 meter band. More fooling around required...

Thanks, Jerry. This one is clearly mine. I unplug it...the frequency comes back. I thought it might be beating two different channels, and I guess that's possible but the WiFi channels are 5MHz apart, although they do overlap. For now, I'll just turn it off when trying to use AO-91 :-)

So the question is: I want to replace this with another WiFi hub. Does anyone have good or bad recommendations for a hub that does not
generate a
lot of RF? (When you google Wi-Fi and RF interference, you mainly get
other
things that interfere with Wi-Fi :-))
I have an older router that caused me some problems, but it's not made any longer so you don't have to worry about not buying one. I solved that problem by moving it out of the attic, to a downstairs bedroom farther away.
But just FYI for possible future problems, I do still pick up interference from a neighbor that gets in the way of AO-73 and AO-92 at the lower end of their passband/Doppler shift. So it may not always be your own!
