Basically only the NOAA computer seems to be adding noise to our system, contributions from their monitor, transformer, power strip, etcetera are negligible. Even with their computer off we still have the noise rings but the rings are greatly accentuated when their computer is on. It would be interesting to compare scans before and after the latest instrument changes (CHIP, etc.) to see if the new equipment is causing the noise.
