I found this when I searched for ripple on the Diamod GSV-3000 Power Supply. This is the one I use for my F5KA.
Gerald replied to a query equal to mine: <quote> Andy, What you are seeing is normal on a dummy load and will go away if you connect an antenna. The atmospheric noise floor is well above the baseline noise on the panadapter below about 20 MHz and you will not see them above about 15 MHz, even with the dummy load. The bottom line is that there is NO effect on receiver performance. Regards, Gerald </quote> I too have the experience, that running the F5KA with the preamp switched on flatten out what is viewed on the Panadapter. What do you say to this Tim with ref. to my issue(S)?. 73s Erik OZ4KK
Do you have other antennas connected to the FLEX-5000? If so disconnect all of them and see what the results are. -Tim -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Erik Jakobsen Sent: Monday, June 27, 2011 1:44 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [FlexEdge] What is this ? Hi. I have observed, that my Flex 5000A has a "funny" lookout in the Panadapter. It is 'nice' visible if I have no antenna on the F5000A. But it can be viewed also with antenna connected. I tried to get rid of it by switching off my Broadband equipment. It was the router, an accesspoint and a switch. It had no positive effect on it. What is it, that I see? http://www.urbakken.dk/My_F5KA.jpg 73s Erik OZ4KK _______________________________________________ Flexedge mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexedge_flex-radio.biz This is the FlexRadio Systems e-mail Reflector called FlexEdge.
