I am having a problem with a noisy sewage lift station near my QTH. When trying to work 160 DX early mornings I will hear a "pop" then nothing but hash until the lift station shuts off with another "

Larry, for what its worth I have been through chasing noise from a pump as well. Many of the newer systems use what is called a VFD, variable frequency drive. Apparently there is some operating cost

Could someone post a .wav file of what this sounds like ? I have a large copper mine two miles away, which is essentially played-out. To extract the remaining copper, they are now pumping large quant

Larry, Detailed info on this particular type problem is available here: http://www.arrl.org/tis/info/HTML/power_line_handbook/ It's a large .pdf publication but worth waiting for the download and wor

That is the generic name for the motor control system that I described in my previous post. So the advice you have received from Lee and me is the same. 73, Jim K9YC _________________________________

Googling VFD will bring up a wealth of information related to this topic. such as: http://www.powerqualityanddrives.com/emi_rfi/ This is how we solved the Allen Bradley VFD problem here. You can surf

I don't know, but my guess would be yes. If you are on good terms with your neighbor, you may get some relief with a good line filter. Corcom and Delta are good brands. They are not expensive, and sh

If the motor is supplied via a variable frequency drive (VFD) it will require some special filtering! These drives input single phase (but sometimes three phase) 230 V 60 Hz AC and output a vartiable
