Interference across 6metre band in Frenchs Forest area,

 Interference across 6metre band in Frenchs Forest, NSW area

Over last couple months the interference has become worse across 6metre band, more noticeable, whilst scanning the 6metre FM repeater segment, I did a sweep from 46-60 Mhz  and found there is wide band signal covering 52.500 to 57 MHz, the signal strength varies from s5 to s9 across that segment.
I suspect it radiating from Northern Beaches Hospital, possibly some piece of medical scanning equipment.
If scan across  the band with a narrow band receiver, it just seems like white noise, but the signal strength meter shows there is something there. 

This happened a few years ago and I tracked it to the hospital.and suddenly it went away.
