All: I recently spoke with Tesla's Ashley Holmen about RFI emanating from a neighbors Tesla-leased solar panel system. Tesla uses SolarEdge components which are known to cause RFI. I gave her all the
Perhaps a class action suit against Tesla might get some attention. Even with a weak civil case the publicity might not be something they want. _______________________________________________ RFI mai
"Purely a civil dispute between neighbors" and that "both Tesla and SolarEdge have done their due diligence". Ask her to provide documentation of complete resolution and full compliance with federal
due diligence is a convenent phrase when they have no other. Its being over used more and more I see. This solar panel craze is going to be more and more of a problem as time goes on. The FCC should
Hi Tony, Respectfully, I do not believe a Class Action lawsuit is the answer here. The instant that the word "class action" is mentioned, every solar company on the Earth will stop assisting anyone t
one would think that the AM Broadcasters would jump and protect their spectrum.... If I had that noise next to me , I don't because I have an SMA German pair of 5kw inverters(QUIET)...AND COULD NOT
Hi, The problem with that approach is that most AM stations are strong enough to override RFI, in most locations, on the AM broadcast band. 73, and thanks, Dave (NK7Z) https://www.nk7z.net ARRL Volun
I wonder if the answer is not a class action suit against solar city, but a suit against the neighbor, not primarily for the RFI, but for loss of enjoyment, and all those other fun things that lawyer
Id keep bugging the company, write letters after letters to the CEO or owner, DO NOT threaten though. Offer technical help, keep asking whythere is still a problem. Offer deminstration to the owner/C
Suppose it really is a civil dispute between neighbors. How would the neighbors resolve the problem if they both chose to do so? Neighbors cannot be expected to have the knowledge to fix such a techn
That's not even close to being true. More than 30 years ago, a colleague who was Chief Engineer at WLS, a 50kW clear channel station licensed to Chicago with a transmitter site SW of the city center,

Hi Jim, Respectfully, in every case here but one, (and I have been involved in maybe 10 to 15 in the past three years), the RFI from grow ops were unheard on the AM band with a local station tuned in
Our "class action" vehicle, as was already pointed out, is the ARRL. As part of their charter to protect our spectrum and represent their members in all aspects of the hobby, they need to step up to
Does the solar panel RFI affect VHF FM or digital modes, especially WinLink? If not, good luck trying to get the ARRL top management to take serious action. HF is on the wrong side of the bread that
"The instant that the word "class action" is mentioned, every solar company on the Earth will stop assisting anyone that is currently being assisted in the US, and turn over all contact to a lawyer.
"but for loss of enjoyment, and all those other fun things that lawyers sue for. Then let HIM end up suing Tesla to recover his money" True. In this state we have a statute covering, "Anything which
I totally agree with Stan's assessment, and would recommend all hams who operate HF and VHF bands begin contacting the ARRL and the FCC immediately regarding this issue whether you have solar RFI tod
I've had good luck contacting Paul W1VLF at the ARRL, I think he is the new (relatively) RFI guy. Paul started the case with Solar Edge, and I was later contacted by TJ, a senior field engineer with
I have worked with Paul as well, he is good folk, and will assist... Don't wait for RFI to find you, approach your ARRL Directors now... Bring up RFI, and ask for reports as to what is happening RFI
