[RFI] Recent RFI status - Direct TV and Dish?

[Dave Harmon]

I have DISH HD and there has been only one problem.
DISH required a telephone line to the unit when I first had it installed.
This might have been eliminated by now....not sure.
But....the unit DID cause an emission on the 40mtr band through the phone
line that I totally eliminated by adding a K-COM filter on the phone line at
the rear of the unit.
Otherwise.....I have not had any interference to or from the DISH unit
whatsoever when using high power on SSB and AM.

I am curious to know of any RFI emissions trouble from Dish or Direct TV
installations that would affect the 1.8 to 50 MHz spectrum. Have you made
receiving measurements to see if anything is being "emitted" by your (or
your neighbors) home satellite RX system? For example, if your low band RX
array was close to a Dish or Direct TV antenna - is there RFI noise that you
can here - caused by Dish or Direct TV?

 

Also, how about RFI problems associated with nearby transmitting antennas
that might cause RFI overload problems to the Dish or Direct TV systems - as
in TVI?

 

Is one service better than the other has far as receiving or transmitting
RFI, or are they RFI quiet and can take nearby HF transmitters?

 

73,
