Whats this ? An electric fence ?

Hi Thomas,
Not sure what that is.
I actually have much larger disturbers as well. I'll try turn down the gain manually - let's see what happens, my station might go totally quiet then
If I don't have too much success with this station I could consider installation at another location down in the Eastern Cape along the coast, I might have better success down there...

That doesn't help !
You only separate the disturbers, not the strokes
Try to locate it, try shielding the ferrite. Try to find a sweet spot, maybe rotating the antennas work.

Since both singals are in phase and in the same polarisation, possibly it's coming via the power supply / mains. You can turn one antenna 180°. If it persists, you need to put a choke between the controller and the psu.
I had the same problem here, my 230V-line is very noisy and the PSU does not decouple these frequencies.

I'm interested in setting up a station in South Africa and wondered if there are any other potential users out there in South Africa looking to setup a station.
I am located in Pretoria at approximately -25.849041°, 28.228571° and am looking to hear from you !
