We are always struggling with the noise level. On HF VHF UHF and on microwaves it is our worse enemy. We are playing with preamps, fliters, low loss feed lines but it seems we forget one source of noise 'The voices from the deads..' or the voices of the other side.
If you live near a cemetery could be your noise figure can be higher than normal!
Did any one ever check this possible noise source?
For those who wants to push their own investigations just go on:

In the recent interference thread, nobody mentioned this world-wide noise source, An interresting new way to have fresh news about our future HEO launch... :) Or at least it can help some with a good QSO to get a second advice warning on our moves? Could be AO-7 has been awakened from the deads by theses voices?
If you enter in a discussion just ask your other party if he/she can do something about AO-40? He probably switch on their frequencies that's why we loose it on our side.
In our present situation could be asking the deads can produce more results! if not nobody will notice...
Business as usual...
