I have been working for over a year to resolve an interference issue caused by a solar array a few houses down (daytime VHF noise level S9+ during the day). In the mean time I talked with Ms Chen at
All of the above. Maybe start with FCC complaint and follow up with Ms Chen at the FCC. I agree that it is odd to have maximum interference at night. In my case overnight about S3 and midday is about
Most definitely get all your doc and "evidence" together first. Be as careful as you can to make sure of the source. Wrong finger pointing is not good and as it have been pointed out to me may times,
After an on-site visit and testing by an FCC Enforcement Agent of the ~S9 interference cause to my station by a Solar City solar array located 2 houses away, the FCC issued Solar City a Notice of Vio
To me its looking like it is not a case of all solar installations are evil. My guess is that most are not. I know at least 5 hams with arrays directly under their antennas and they have no noise iss
The FCC agent told me that last fall when they went from 11 field offices to 3 they went from 80 agents to 38. _______________________________________________ RFI mailing list RFI@contesting.com http
Just to make my situation even more entertaining my neighbor doesn't even own the system. It's one of those deals where they get free panels and SolarCity becomes their power company. So neither I or
I don't, I was present, that's how I know. Ive been looking for a URL for this action. Anyone have a URL for it? - 73 Mike N3LI - _______________________________________________ RFI mailing list RFI@
To live with it is your choice. Or you could do your home work, file a complaint, contact Ms Chen at the FCC if you do believe you have a solar array interference issue. I expect the "live with" appr
I have had a multi-year issue with solaredge caused interference. About a year ago some ineffect filtering was installed. Solaredge just keeps tap dancing but doesn't actually do anything to resolve
To be specific the solaredge optimizer device has to be removed from the back of the solar panel. _______________________________________________ RFI mailing list RFI@contesting.com http://lists.cont
I have a S9 + noise level across the entire VHF band caused by a solaredge installation. I haven't looked at HF yet but I'm not sure I want to. Part 15 seems really clear but that doesn't seem to mak
Two on-site visits by an FCC enforcement agent that verified the interference. Notice of violation written to SolarCity and solaredge. Notice of violation disappeared and was never published in the f
If you install a solar city system with solaredge optimizers you can pretty much count on not hearing much of anything else except the system. _______________________________________________ RFI mail
You can likely get the city to shut the whole thing down as commercial grow operations are generally not permitted in residential areas. Call your City's local zoning department. ____________________
Anyting based on the SolarCity / Solar Edge optimiser design will put an end to your ham radio activities. _______________________________________________ RFI mailing list RFI@contesting.com http://l
Seems like the easy solution is to change the offending breaker(s) to Eaton. Please see ns6q.net/exams for all the details about our exams... 73, Mike NS6Q ___________________________________________
" I have contacted the *maker of the breakers, Square D*, and they tell me, after some rudimentary tests, that there is nothing wrong with their breakers. " Please see ns6q.net/exams for all the deta
It has been my experience after 2+ years of living with a S9 noise level that the FCC, the equipment manufacturers and installers, in this case solaredge and Solar City, and the ARRL could care less.
Based on my personal experience I have to completely disagree with the comments about solar edge. I have found solar edge to be completely unresponsive, completely ineffective, and generally uncaring
