Hi.

After doing some looking around on the HF bands, I came to a sudden 
realization that trying to get a quiet receiver on these bands is 
pointless.  Regardless of how good my receiver is, I live in a city, and 
generally mostly what I am hearing all over the HF spectrum is Part 15 
devices.  In theory, I have the right to be free from interference by these 
devices, but any urban dweller probably knows that they win by their sheer 
numbers because it is impossible to track all of them down.  I am finding 
that the MW and HF spectrum is ruled by computer hash, miscellaneous 
digital clock pulses, and video garbage, sometimes registering up to S9+220 
DB, and generally not less than S7.

I came to the conclusion after looking over the situation that I'm not 
spending one more dime on anything below 50 MHz.
