[Elecraft] Dish/Direct TV RFI?
For multiple reasons we dumped satellite TV. Cable service was gone 10 years ago. While the DSS receiver and its associated power supply didn't give me any issues, I found the plastic box in which the receiver was contained offered little to no shielding from my HF transmitters. Specifically the remote control receiver, being an RF remote, must have a front end as broad as a barn door. Even when the remote control method was switched to IR, the remote receiver was still active in the box. My solution was to wrap the entire receiver, except a small front corner where the IR receiver was located, in aluminum foil. No amount of ferrites on the input, power and output would resolve the issue. It looked a bit crude but it worked. My wife would certainly let me know when the thing changed channels or turned on and off by itself during her Pay Per View movies. The straw which made the final decision to dump satellite TV was weather related signal loss, along with their customer service. Either thunder storms in the summer or snow and ice in the winter where I've had to sweep snow and break ice off of the dish to restore the signal. Fortunately we are in an area, although basically rural, where our phone company provides not only phone, but internet, and HD TV, by underground fiber to the house. They run dedicated CAT 5E cable to each of the TV's {3} and another to my wireless router from the fiber termination on the side of the house. They also provide battery back-up for the fiber termination. The bottom line, their system is totally immune to RF on any HF band and any power level, and we no longer have to worry about WX related outages. And with the expanded package it is costing less than the Direct TV service. I think it is a win win situation. I wish everyone had a system such as this. 73 Bob, K4TAX __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com

Re: [Elecraft] Dish/Direct TV RFI?
I have had DISH for about three years, and it has been bullet-proof, with me running 1500 watts in contests on all HF bands. I've turned off power in the house several times to find potential sources of RFI, and the DISH equipment has never been found to radiate RFI. Before DISH, I had DirecTV, and that was not a problem either. My immediate neighbor had an old DirecTV box with a landline telephone line connected to it so she could order pay-per-view movies. That phone connection generated terrible RFI to all the other telephones in her house. A KCom filter on that line solved the problem.

Re: [Elecraft] Dish/Direct TV RFI?
A little clarification is due. Sorry I missed a couple parts in my original response this morning to Reed's question about DirecTV rcvrs. My first omission. I do not use DirecTV for internet. Only for TV-reception. It would be horrible for internet. No Satellite Internet would work for anyone depending on internet to operate your own ham station remotely due to latency and or packet loss. My internet is provided through a CATV company. I have never had a problem with ingress of my Ham Station into the DirecTV system so I never considered that as an issue. I do run 1500W on 160-10m. Next part. Those who claim that the direcTV receivers don't make any noise into their Amateur Radio stations probablly have not listened to their DirecTV receivers with a Noise Sniffer, AM-transistor radio tuned off station; Small loop attached to your Ham Radio receiver that can be placed close to this receiver and other devices in your home. Sniffer receiver used is an old Sony 2001-ICF It doesn't have ANL. It can be tuned to most any frequency of interest, It has both internal an directional loop antenna and a nice long extendable whip that you can reach easily close to your Wall Warts, DirecTV receivers, TV sets, Computers Modems Routers fluorescent Lights LED lights. Try a walkabout your homes with such noise listening devices. You just might be surprised at how much noise you are getting into your ham radio antennas. Once you eliminate the top tier of noise generators in your home then you begin to hear the next level down noise generators. There are zero fluorescent ballasts in my home. All have been replaced by yes I did find quiet direct wire LED bulbs for replacements. Zero Variable speed motors, Fans or light dimmers. Many other devices as well as the wall wart switchers are gone or choked to stop the noise.

Re: [Elecraft] Dish/Direct TV RFI?
None seen here! Had had both Dish-Net and Direct-TV. Old 1.8m dish was mounted about 30-foot from my 16-foot eme dish where I run 125w on 1296. No problems even with big dish pointed at the sat-TV dish. My HF antennas are above the ham shack which other side of bedroom wall from 46-inch Samsung TV (which uses home theater system). 6m does get into the subwoofer (audio rectification) when I run 80w+ (my wife just turns off the subwoofer if I am on 6m). I tried wrapping audio cables thru a big ferrite donut (no help). New 1.2m dish on the roof is about 40-feet away from my HF tower: Hygain tribander and 80/40m inverted-V. My 630m inverted-L wire passes over the dish about 20-feet above it. I have both K3 and KX3, Once you go with satellite-TV you will never chose cable again. They aren't perfect but the local dealer gets out pretty fast if you have tech problems. We mainly use sat-TV for watching local news&wx (Anchorage - 70mi North of us) and network programs (NBC, ABC, CBS, PBS) which are linked from local stations thru the satellite. Now that air broadcasts are digital, signal is too weak to use a TV antenna (I'd rather use tall towers for ham radio). Both Dish-Net and Direct-TV receive near 11-GHz microwave so are pretty much insensitive to most ham frequencies (I currently operate up to 1296). 73, Ed - KL7UW - From: Reed To: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] Dish/Direct TV RFI?

Re: [Elecraft] Dish/Direct TV RFI?
John described RFI from the wall wart switching supply and such supplies are both notorious RFI generators and are ubiquitous. Our DirecTV receiver/DVR is completely quiet on HF and as far as I can test, on VHF and UHF as well. I've never interfered with it on any band, even when I was running 1200 watts. Regarding satellite internet, the unmanned spaceship is about 38,600 km away in the southern sky, so there is a significant LOS delay on top of all the usual processing and routing delays. This can make most forms of remote control problematic. We had a neighbor who worked for HP, often at home via a VPN, and the satellite internet did not work for him. You might see if there is a local wireless provider. I hosted a couple of RAP's for the local provider when we lived in rural NorCal and got free, 50 Mbps both ways in return. Unfortunately, such service is usually unavailable in more densely populated areas where cable and DSL is available. Really heavy rain will kill the satellite signal [Ku-band, I think] as will snow on the feed horns and in the dish. I can get to our dish from the ground with a broom. If you live in an area with significant snow, you might want to make sure the dish is accessible. I've wondered about some heating tape on the back of the dish but haven't done anything yet. 73, Fred ["Skip"] K6DGW Sparks NV DM09dn Washoe County On 3/14/2018 7:37 AM, John K9UWA wrote: Hi Reed YES !
