[TenTec] ⛔ Re: ? Electric fence noise

[Ralph Matheny]

Sorry my post re the choke on the fence was not
clear.  The choke goes at the output of the charger.
That requires a co-operative farmer, which you may
not have.

FCC will not help with any HF related problem unless
you can get a local public service agency to call.  A few
years back there was a bad pager TX here, made a mess,
no results until I got the tech at the local airport to make
a call...and the problem got fixed...fast.

Today the FCC does nothing they give it to the ARRL and all they do is call the farm and the farmer says there is nothing wrong with his fence and that’s it.  And I heard the FCC is now charging 35.00 for renew of license.

 I chased RFI for a living at AT&T. It seems you are looking at this issue from the wrong side. In my experience, most cases of electric fence noise was caused by defective insulators or corroded connections and thus the responsibility of the fence owner to repair. Most were cooperative as it was probably noising up their radio, TV and phone service.

For those that did not cooperate, it was pointed out that they were violating Part 15 of the FCC rules and may ultimately have to deal with the FCC.
Just my 2 cents...

I use electric fence here to keep deer out
of my tomato patch.  To keep the fence out of
the radio I have a choke...3 turns well insulated
wire on a good sized #31 toroid, and I can't tell
the thing is on or off with the radio.

Your results may vary...every fence and charge will
probably be different.

An electric fence charger may be modified for a longer rise time. Like
softening keying to eliminate clicks.
