The reduction in life of an incandescent lamp when operated on DC versus AC is attributable to a phenomenon known as "DC notching." With DC applied, the tungsten molecules migrate within the filament

Jim, I agree with Mike that an insertion loss like you measured (3.5 dB) is quite high. If you meant a splitting loss of 3 db (which is the nominal value for a two-way splitter since power is divided

Sorry Mike, the short answer is that raising the antenna will have little effect on the signal amplitude. Fixing the problem at the source is the solution. The description of your dealings with the p

I would be surprised to learn that this doesn't happen more often. The sample clock used in a large number of video CODECs is 13.5 MHz. 121.5 MHz is the 9th harmonic of that frequency, therefore, the

Rod, A few questions for you to help better understand the problem: 1) On what band does the repeater operate? 2) What make and model are the repeater radios? 3) What is the operating voltage of the

Dale, you're right on point. Actually, a number of my questions (#4, #5, #8) were digging at understanding what the CE coupling paths may be and what the power source impedances may have looked like

Kelly, Two possibilities quickly come to mind: 1) an electric fence charger 2) the local oscillator (L.O.) of a scanning receiver The repetition rate of (1) is usually a bit lower than 1 Hz. The sign

An ultrawideband (UWB) transmission is somewhat similar in concept to direct-sequence spread spectrum. The bandwidth of the signal is, however, much broader. The power spectral density of the signal

Don, I believe you may have missed the "smoking gun" or maybe I don't quite understand how you did the tests. It appears that the Netgear hub, not the router, is the primary source of your problem. Y

The impedance introduced on the outside of the shield by wrapping the coax around the toroid will have no effect on the desired signal *inside* the coax. If you were too aggressive with the installat

Kelly, This is not a direct answer to your question but may lead you down a path to the source. My first guess at the source of this problem would be an electric fence, which would be an impulse (bro

Mike, Although you stated that there seems to be some dependency on weather conditions, I would recommend that you first verify that the problem is not a function of your receiver. Have you observed

I agree with much of what Earl says. There are usually lots of other poorly bonded joints at places other than in your antenna system. Consider using some sort of loop antenna with which you can DF t

They key data point in your post is that you terminated the antenna input to the TV and the interference remained. This eliminates cable system leakage as the primary interference coupling path (mayb
