41. Re: [RFI] Big Farad Audio Caps & RFI? (score: 1)

Those 'big caps' have too low a SRF to be useful as an RF bypass. *IF* you have low frequency ripple making it through to the radios audio stage it could help but this would normally indicate a faili

I picked mine up from bestconverter.com, I seem to recall that generally a DLS-45/IQ4 should be around $180 - 190, and a DLS-55/IQ4 $190 - 200. The best bang for the $ at the time was the 55amp units

Side note on this front, if they are good now you might want to check again every few months. There were a few CFs in my home when I moved in. Over about a year I swapped everything to CF. Was a mix

While I agree with most of this, I have to strongly disagree with you comments about a common mode filter on the DSL side of the line. When you are saying is the _exact opposite_ of what I have seen

I think there is a terms issue here. I did refer to a common mode choke as a filter once, but the important part is _common mode_. And it does have band-stop, high-pass or low-pass behavior depending

One of the primary ingress points is the house wiring, and if present arial drop. Placing a choke at modem ingress puts it between the antenna and the modem. Placing at NID puts it between the primar

Go spend about about $100 on a small UPS. Passive is possible, but you would need. Exterior and interior antennas matched to the bands used by the cell carrier. Note, _bands_, not band. Most carriers

Generally you would need to not only be able to eyeball the tower, but have a clear fresnel zone. If not you might need to fall back to using the external antenna port on the phone. _________________
