201. [AMPS] Choke input PS question (score: 1)

I'm not sure if that happens with a tuned choke (I don't like calling it 'resonant' because we've seen it had better not be!) but those spikes are why you need a good big capacitor on the output to k

I suspect more failures are caused by the stresses when you first switch on and the current is many times normal. Thus the high leakage reactance power transformer is useful. Interestingly, even indi

According to Pappenfus, a test with very closely spaced tones (<50Hz) will do it - but you need a spectrum analyser with very good resolution. 73 Peter G3RZP -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com

That means that your wideband noise doesn't have a low frequency component, so isn't the required 'noise'. An appreciable LF component is required. The illusion on 40dB may be there that it is 'in ch
