Transmission running up the 20m dial

I took these four PowerSDR screenshots while working FT8 at 14.074. I noticed a progression of RFI showing up on the waterfall moving up the 20m dial. Any ideas?

Here's a bunch more screenshots as the RFI took another turn as I was typing out the previous message.

looks like someone was transmitting a signal of some kind, and started turning his tuning knob up the band.
Just a guess.

I had a made in China switched mode wall wart that made a very similar pattern. I'm storing it at the local landfill now..
