Hi listmates, We had some threads regarding "Awards for worst EMC/PS quality" in last month. Please allow me to put forward a tentative list of Awards for EMC.
1) <Discover new continent> Prize goes to "Jingling coins", presented by Douglas Mckean. It created a big stir in discussing the new and un-regulate Radiated Emission from jingling coins. Over 25 Email follow-ups. 2) <Adventure> Prize to "Helicopter as roller coaster" by Ed Price. Described a suddenly raised helicopter due to interference from the onboard UHF radio. Risky, but fortunate not suddenly dived. A similar story by Hans Mellberg about some truck drivers using their Ham radio to jeopardize BMW cars in Europe (PG 31!) 3) <Anonymous heroes> to "Apollo 11 anxiously waiting for EMC fixing" by Lou Gnecco. All EMC engineers are very proud of their important role in successfully launching Apollo 11. 4) <Shortest comedy> to "Empty Prototype" by Brian Kunde. An conscientious but impatient Director mistook a concept box for product prototype and got amazing lowest emission level. The above list is incomplete, waiting for you to add, especially for worst Safety. Thanks. Barry Ma --------- This message is coming from the emc-pstc discussion list.
