Based on some of the comments on this email reflector in the last week,
I went hunting for noise this weekend and discovered the worst offender
in the house was the switching "wall wart" power supply for my Linksys
wireless router. I will replace the "wall wart" with a linear regulated
supply
of the same rating, and I expect most or all of the noise to go away.
The Linksys
box puts out a few spot carrier tones or birdies, which will still be
there, but the
broadband S5 hash was coming from the "wall wart."

I'm sorry to go off-topic, but is there a particular model of wireless
router that produces little or no HF noise?
Noise source 1: My non-wireless Linksys BEFSR41 EtherFast Cable/DSL Router
with 4-port switch, which I started using a few days ago, produces very
strong broadband noise on HF. So, please let me know if there is a
type of wireless router that seems to produce less HF interference.
