Rob, not only your observations, but I'd ask (I know) how long ARRL has
been "working with" Solar Edge to engineer a solution. The solution is
there and sound. They know what the fixes are. Sure, they may cost a bit
more. But Solar Edge refuses to take the sound advise of ARRL which aided
Solar Edge in finding a "solution" to their RFI.
And even further, ARRL has done what FCC should be doing on the backs ($$$)
of us members of ARRL. FCC just doesn't care about enforcement so long as
it doesn't involve mega$$ in their pockets. At the FCC both enforcement
and OET (Office of Engineering and Technology) has been gutted. Nothing
left but a bunch of misguided and overpaid lawyers. And I'd ask what do
lawyers know about RF. You know the answer.....
Have a read of my long paragraph on my QRZ page for some real life
experiences as an RFI/EMC engineer.
