After watching the season finale of Better Call Saul, I actually already thought of this! haha

This is the picture I sent to the Valve engineer.

And here is some info he sent me:

I looked up that radio station, it operates at 1.44 MHz, 5 kW during the day 270 W at night. The light signals Lighthouse uses are modulated at 1.8432 MHz and the sensors have some sensitivity to all signals from about 1 MHz to about 8 MHz, it is possible the RF from the radio station is getting into the sensors – but we will need to do some analysis to work out if that is the problem. It would take very strong signals at RF to get into the sensors which are designed for detecting modulated light and ignoring everything else to avoid this problem, but your location means you might be seeing field strengths large enough.

Let me do some experiments here to see how much common-mode signal at 1.44 MHz the headset and base stations can take. The error I see in the logs might be a red herring because of your unique type of interference. It may be the base stations are fine but the headset sensors are being overwhelmed. You mentioned the controllers track fine, which supports this actually – I’d expect the cabled things to be effected but the small and floating controllers to be much more immune. If this is true then a simple RF choke in the power lead of your computer (and everything connected to the mains via it, like the power supply for the Vive) might fix your problem completely.

I attempted a test tonight where I tried to have the headset on at sundown (when the radio transmission strength would be reduced). Sundown was at 750pm. I used the headset around 730pm (tracking issues) but was interrupted and unable to check it again until 745pm (no issues).

I'm fairly confident this is an RF interference issue from the radio tower.
