Re: [RFI] shielding question (score: 1): Author: "Jim Brown" <jimbrown.enteract@rcn.com>; Date: Mon, 22 Dec 2003 16:34:35 -0600; The shielding enclosure of most electronics is a reasonable ground reference. A 747 has no connection to earth, but the shielding on its wiring works just fine. And even if that receiver had a 2-pron; /archives//html/RFI/2003-12/msg00049.html (8,123 bytes)

It was first described by Neil Muncy (ex-W3WJE) in an AES paper in 1994, based on research he did only at audio frequencies. I've do; /archives//html/RFI/2003-12/msg00054.html (12,535 bytes)

It's just that it appears to simplify to that at a higher frequency than you think. Yes. When I have time, I intend to look; /archives//html/RFI/2003-12/msg00058.html (9,814 bytes)

When you publish with AES, they have distribution rights. I don't get any of the money.

I paid about $80 for my copy of Henry Ott's book, a bit less (per book) for "Antennas" by John Kraus, for the IEEE Emerald Book and Green Book, and for Tsaloviovich'; /archives//html/RFI/2003-12/msg00064.html (8,905 bytes)

They were written for audio engineers, many of whom have limited understanding of RF issues, so there is much in them of a tutorial nature.

That wasn't true before our involvement. By contrast, many standards bodies t; /archives//html/RFI/2003-12/msg00072.html (10,481 bytes)

I suspect either power line or antenna line coupling, and I suspect the filters you are using are ineffective below 20 meters.

I don't remember if you mentioned what the original loudspeaker cable was, but unshielded twisted pair is known to be far superior to zip cord in rejecting RF.

Near the feedpoint, the magnetic field will be quite strong, but the electric field will be quite small. At the far end, the conver; /archives//html/RFI/2003-12/msg00096.html (9,670 bytes)

Not necessarily -- this burst detector would also be looking at a composite video signal (i.e., plain ordinary video on coax). Agreed on all of the above, except that my weapon of choice would b; /archives//html/RFI/2003-12/msg00100.html (10,605 bytes)
