Doug has touched on what I think would be a great tool for the EMI hunter...but rather than a 'sniffer', a 'goggle' similar to what Geordi wears that facilitates the direct viewing of EM radiation.
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
