All: I thought the group would be interesting in seeing this video. It shows RFI being generated by a SolarEdge installation in California. The severity of the noise mimics what I see here in New Yor
Ed: SolarEdge engineers discovered that the panels themselves were generating RFI at several locations. The noise was detected while the panels were disconnected from the system. Tony -K2MO _________
All: Thinking of adding a handheld spectrum analyzer to my RFI detecting arsenal. The low-budget ($165.00) RF Explorer unit looks interesting. It covers 0.1 through 960 MHz and can be used with DF lo
All: I recently tracked down power line network RFI emanating from a neighbors home. These are Ethernet devices that use the existing A/C lines in the house to send and receive data over the internet
All: Quick update on my solar panel RFI case with SolarEdge. As some of you may recall, I filed a complaint with the company in August of 2016, a few days after the system was installed on a neighbor
It seems to me that FCC should be asked to issue a notice of violation and shut them down. 73, Jim K9YC Jim: I filed a complaint with the FCC in April of this year so we're hoping for the best. I rec

Does anyone know what the FCC limits are on harmful interference caused by radiated emissions with regard to HF and the amateur radio service? Is the noise measured at the receiving station or is it
