181. Re: [TenTec] Corsair II buzz (score: 1)

The most common source of "buzz" consists of "triplen" harmonics of the AC power line, coupled from the 3-phase power line that is probably providing your residential service. See my recommendations

What you have described could very well be high leg Delta -- you just don't have the 3rd phase brought down your road. because no one needs it. 73, Jim Brown K9YC ____________________________________

Yes. But -- the bonding shorts out the buzz, so the shorter the conductors and the larger they are,the less buzz is left. The second component of my advice is to get all power for the station from ou

Gary, Do you have access to any form of audio FFT? I'm thinking of software that could run on your laptop using the sound card. Laptop is important, because it can run on battery and independent of t

The words "RF ground" have NO MEANING in science. They are a fignewton of fuzzy thinking. A connection to EARTH is totally irrelevant for a radio transmitter, receiver, or antenna. A connection to e

But a Faraday cage is NOT a solution to the fundamental problem -- RF CURRENT flowing where we don't want it. A Faraday cage addresses the E field (capacitive coupling) and poor shielding. The E-fiel

Yes, you did, absolutely correct. I agree completely. I was keying in on the RF Ground idea and forgot to reinforce your many excellent comments. Sorry, Bob. My bad. The "pin 1 problem" is a mis-term

Actually, coax is the BEST feedline for a dipole, BECAUSE you can kill common mode current on it VERY effectively with a ferrite choke, You cannot do that with twinlead -- way too much leakage flux.

Yes. A Faraday cage is, by definition, an Electric shield. It is NOT a magnetic shield at low frequencies. In the near field of a field produced by current, the field is primarily a magnetic field.

It is a mistake to think "all or nothing" with respect to the 18-inch copper or copper pipe. Nothing wrong with those recommendations, but something like #10 or #6 copper is FAR better than NOTHING b
