I recently installed a CO alarm (required by code) and I observed a sensitivity to 40m transmissions. It only occurs when I am about around 50W... the alarm goes off for a few seconds. My antenna (dipole cut for 80m with a tuner) is on the outside of the house right now, but I have plans to move it out to the trees someday. Since the alarm is the plug-in type, it won't be easy to install an AC rated cap across the line (although I guess I can put it in the outlet box).
I have two solutions for this problem at the moment: 1) Only work 40m when the XYL is not home 2) Eventually get the antenna away from the house. 73, de AJ4TF -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/annoying-problem-tp7569472p7569521.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
