Re: [AMRadio] Insulin Pump RFI?
Gentleman, The interference problem between RF sources and medical devices is real, but fortunately a declining one. For many years the medical device industry did not do a good job in their designs but most devices were in a controlled enviroment. However the medical devices have moved to the real world with such devices as pacemakers, etc. A lot of the intereference has to do with the mode of modulation. The newer digital phones can actually have peak power outputs of 10-12 Watts and indeed could cause some problems with devices like pacemakers. This problem was identified early on and there has been a fix. However the risk can be real. http://www.ou.edu/engineering/emc/ Ed, W9EJB - Original Message - From: Jim candela [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Discussion of AM Radio amradio@mailman.qth.net Sent: Monday, February 28, 2005 7:12 AM Subject: RE: [AMRadio] Insulin Pump RFI? I asked my brother, a diabetic, about radio interference to his insulin pump. He is a lawyer, and I hoped to get a legal answer to a hypothetical case where he went into insulin shock as a result of my being on the air waves: Question: John, A hypothetical case. Your my neighbor with a insulin pump, and I am a federally licensed ham radio operator. I am transmitting within the law on a licensed frequency, running legal power, etc. Your pump is susceptible to strong radio waves... One day I am talking on the air, and while talking, a ambulance takes you away. Seems your in insulin shock due to a pump malfunction. Where is the law on this issue? Jim Answer: Jim, You are a mad man. Actually, from looking at the manual of this thing the more likely problem is from the pump interfering with other devices using radio frequencies. The RFs on the pump are used to transmit readings from a glucose test meter to the pump. The book says that interference will not affect the actual pump operation. As to your question the manual says that the pump must comply with Part 15 of the FCC rules and it must accept any interference received. That aside, if I survive in your scenario, look out! John Side note: If his insulin pump was creating interference, and causing me trouble receiving the Collins net this Wednesday, would it be appropriate to ask my brother to turn that darn thing off? :-) -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

Re: [AMRadio] ART 13's for sale
Hi Ed, The AMI events are announced on the Wednesday evening West Coast AMI Net. The last one was at the end of August so expect another one in 5 to 6 months unless someone decides to have a party at the spur of the moment. I made one at my place about a year and a half ago. It was a load of fun and got to meet some new AM dudes that I didn't know. Best regards, Damon Rapahel, W7MD Tucson, AZ Edward B Richards wrote: Hi Damon; I am a recent AMI member (#1534).
