RE: TV nostalgiaKyle, The 'goggle' idea sounds great, but........ They wouldn't need us anymore! Design engineers could check (and correct) EMI problems easily themselves. I hope I retire before THAT gizmo comes out. (But I would love to have a chance to peek through one to see if my mental image of the radiation patterns matches).

Ideally, the device would allow adjustable band 'viewing' of the radiation frequency, intensity, polarity and propagation pattern(s). A rig like this could add a pc for compliance recognition/cataloging and perhaps someday eliminate the need for OATS, TEM cells and other investigatinve methods. The system could also harass on a per sample basis in situ mfg. product. -kyle, KC0IQE -----Original Message----- From: Doug McKean [mailto:dmck...@corp.auspex.com] Sent: Friday, August 03, 2001 8:40 PM To: EMC-PSTC Discussion Group Subject: Re: TV nostalgia <snip> Now, if we could just train ourselves to sniff out some of those pesky EMI problems ... - Doug McKean
