An electromagnetic well borehole telemetry system for transmitting information between a downhole transceiver, disposed preferably within a borehole assembly in the borehole, and a surface transceiver positioned at or near the surface of the earth. A trigger and cooperating strobe are used to define strobe increments. Synchronous telemetry measurements made during the strobe increments are algebraically summed to identify a synchronous cyclical noise component in a composite electromagnetic telemetry signal. Any non cyclical noise components occurring during the strobe increments algebraically cancel in the algebraic summing operation. The cyclical noise component is then removed from the composite signal thereby increasing the signal to noise ratio of the telemetry system. The system is particularly effective in minimizing electromagnetic noise generated by the rotation of a rotating element such as the rotary table or top drive of a drilling rig.
