Is the whole overhead cable radiating (likely I guess)? And is the interference originating from the DPU or NCD?
I'm just thinking if it is one device then some clip-on ferrites at one end might do something, though not possible at the DPU end of course.
One might think you could temporarily fix the issue so you can operate by switching off your NCD, but that may not do anything because I believe power to the DPU is provided by all the premises that are connected to it, not just you.
It is a wider issue than just you of course i.e. an amateur or SWL whose neighbor gets FTTC with an overhead line and cops interference. And if the whole street gets FTTC ....
Something the WIA should investigate I think, because the problem is only going to get worse.
I've read that if a pit to premises cable is sus, NBN Co. may where possible install an overhead line replacement rather than run a new trench. Also that in time areas currently FTTN may have FTTC rolled out to serve the users too far from a node to get acceptable speeds.
Edit: a friend has had good results with an MFJ-1026 unit for solar panel and what he assumes is NBN interference in his suburban area.
