Hey Gang,
The cable TV issues are still there (but there no longer seems to be voltage on
the line), but I've pretty much did a good cleanup on the higher bands
Last night I go to look at a spot on 80m - s9+10 noise!
Start searching this AM - the power supply for my WD-TV that I had a small
ferrite on was still making some noise on 80, but even with it unplugged, there
was something in the house SCREAMING
I chased it down - the power supply that came with my (cheap) external had
drive enclosure from Buffalo - unplugged that, I'm down to S4 - Yep, over 5 S
units of noise from ONE wall wart (simple 12V unit!)
DOes anyone know where to BUY (no, I'm not talking hamfest junk bin finds)
various portable (No, I don't want to lug around an Astron) power supplies that
are RFI Quiet?
The big ones (in my household survey) would be
12V DC
20V DC High (like 20A) power 'line lumps' for laptop computers - those seem to
be all noisy, but seem to use a standard connector
and 5V DC
I'd actually be willing to spend some fairly nice money to replace them. There
are so many of them around the house that the cost in ferrites....
