A wander around the neighborhood with a portable radio might narrow down the source.

AM broadcast band may suffice if you don't have a shortwave.
I have been for a walk around the neighbourhood with my portable short wave receiver ,and even tried it connected to an active loop .I must admit that there was nothing really definitive found , can hear the noise but not very strong like I would expect.Can't hear anything on the AM broadcast band unfortunately, or I would have called ACMA .
The noise is directly in the direction of a power pole out the front of my neighbours place, when I point my 20m Yagi .Borrowing a mobile transceiver later , and will check out the neighbourhood for the noise .

Now there is a grey area though.  I was lucky here as initially I was the only one who was yet connected to the DPU, so when I powered down the NCD I also powered down the DPU.  (The consumer powers the NBN FTTC gear from the NCD). Once others were connected they kept supply to the DPU when I pulled the power off.

Just something to keep in mind when designing test scenarios and tracing the noise.

I am hoping that by using a mobile radio and resonant antenna, that I will be able to pinpoint the noise .Once I know for sure where it is coming from ,I will be able to form a plan of action.
I must admit that I know nothing about the NBN ,and am relying on other peoples knowledge and experience .We can think of nothing else that can cause this sort of localised interference , and appears to ramp up when it sees an RF signal.
