Hello Smith,
I use the 1026 and K3. The 1026 is connected to the RX IN and RX OUT. I use
it to suppress a neighbor's dimmer light. I also have the TimeWave ANC4 and it
works equally good. I use it on another rig and switch the noise antenna with
a two position coax switch. My noise antenna is about 40 feet long and
positioned on the lot line nearest to the noise.
It used to be a quiet area at my location, but since about the middle 1990's it
has become riddled with all sorts of garbage noise. My belief is there is very
little if any oversight on electronic and electrical devices and the industry
seems to do their own thing however way it saves them money. I would like to
see more stringent mandatory testing of all these gadgets and electrical
devices paid for by the mfg, BEFORE they can be placed on shelves for sale,
then testing later from randomly picked off the shelve items to assure the
production lots are maintaining the same standard as the testing subject. This
should be all paid by the mfg and independent test labs do the work, NOT their
own labs. Results submitted to the FCC for review and possible corrective
action including fines and removal of the offending device from sales.
The part 15 sticker on the bottom is not enough.
That's my little soapbox rant, hi.
