Re: Audio in speakers during Tx - RFI


 

开云体育

As most OLD OLD Hams know, there was a LOT of problems caused on Phone Land lines back then by us Vermin's.

It was RFI.

As a kid and youngster the Neighbors Never Believed that I should even be running my Ham radio.

If they would let me, I would take the cover off the phone lines coming into their houses, and put Disk Caps on the lines.

I went every way, line to line, and lines to box ground.?? That usually fixed the problems.? I think the caps were about a dime?

Way later, I? ferrite beads became available.? Thats what I did to my phone when I started running big power.

The good ol' days, everyone has to get there someday!

Perhaps we need to have a sep[erate power wired from the building input thro a metal conduit and provicde an additional emi filter for that right at the load point.. Obviously the equipment ground would be connected to that .

Even my Novice 75W transmitter would light the hall light at night each time I keyed the rig.

Reversing the switches at each end of the hall made it non resonate on 40M. ?

Probably saved some RF to be radiated too.? LOL

Yes, it depends on input Z of the amps.? I remember tube amps.?? I built a big stereo in the 60's, they had Hi Z so low values worked.? I have a great story....... My neighbors had a water heater system with a big water holding solar panel on the roof.? When I fired up the SB200 or 220, it cycled their water pump.? They figured it out!?? They heard me Yelling on the Mic during a DX Contest!? They put 2 and 2 together.

I had to go on the roof and put .1uF? on all their control switches and wiring!?? It was a perfect 20 Ant. up there.

Mice,
?I had these experiences that old? Inveterted audio electronic telephones instruments called secraphones installed for VIPs? close to Radio Transmitters? used to misbehave.
?We immediately used to have a capacitor across the Mic module and telephone line Inop=put close to active components to byepass RF.
?You are right that even 1000pF would do.
?But afterall the audio at Volumen control point is coupled with 1 to 5uF capacitors.
?hence i thought even 0.1uF would not deteriorate audio.? The induction could be internal to amplispeaker also and thro power mine that powers the ampli speakers.
?Thu8s? I suppose that byepaasing audio at volume cotroll stage is better.

Might try looping lead (leads?) to amp thru a ferrite, or get the split clamp on ones, close to were it goes in the amp?

Wrap up in a coil any extra length of the cable.? Makes a common mode choke.

As Sarma says, maybe a 100 - 1000 pF bypass on each input?

i heard audio even volume down bottom.

Is it external speaker or external amplispeaker?
