Re: [Elecraft] (ot) noise reduction resources
FWIW: I see that regularly, in short bursts. Midday, just watching 80 while otherwise occupied, those multiple very narrow carriers come up for anywhere from a few seconds to a minute or two, and then disappear. Oddly, but thankfully, I'm not plagued with SMPS type noise ... well, except when I was trying to work TX5S. I don't know what the carriers are from but they look like a steady CW carrier, not noise. Any email list on mailman.qth.net will strip all but plain ASCII text. Emails sent in HTML likewise. It's not Elecraft censoring anything, just the way the email list software is built. 73, Fred ["Skip"] K6DGW Sparks NV DM09dn Washoe County Robert Strickland via Elecraft wrote on 4/5/2024 12:59 PM: The screen shot of the noise is posted on QRZ.com.

Re: [Elecraft] (ot) noise reduction resources
Elecraft's own list is for support of ALL their products. Some guys wanted a list dedicated to the K3, so started their own. That's the groups.io list. There's another groups.io list dedicated to the K4. Elecraft is NOT doing censorship, it's simply a text only list, because they started it 25+ years ago. I started reading it in 2003 when I bought a used K2. I'm not aware of them ever censoring anything. Indeed, the two owners of the company read their list every day and have been known to chime in to solve problems. Several times over the years, I've seen Wayne or Eric get involved to solve problems with guys on remote DXpeditions. WE6R is one of several hams who work on a service bench there. He's been reading the kK3 list for a year or two. I think Wayne and/or Eric might browse it now and then. I live about 20 miles from Elecraft, so know these guys and several others. 73, Jim K9YC On 4/5/2024 12:30 PM, Robert Strickland via Elecraft wrote: Jim...

Re: [Elecraft] (ot) noise reduction resources
Hi Robert, You've used the term 'receiver noise', but specifically mentioned heterodynes and harmonics as being of concern. All receivers, Elecraft not excluded, have internal spurious signals generated in the VFO and BFO circuits as well as clocks for digital circuits in the radio. The best way to identify internal spurious signals is to remove the antenna(s) from the radio, terminate the antenna ports in 50 ohm dummy loads, and then carefully sweep the bands of concern to see if anything is audible. Internal spurs will typically be insensitive to front-end gain/attenuation settings, but may vary in strength with IF gain controls (e.g., the K2 has IF gain control even though labeled as RF gain). If you have a second, different radio, try the same experiment and see if the spurious carriers are replicated on it. Switch-mode power converters are ubiquitous these days and generate buzzy, drifting harmonics of the switching frequency. Turn off power to your entire house, power your radio from a battery source, and see if you still hear such signals. Finding these sources is easy, if a bit time consuming, once you've determined they're on your local AC circuits. Ethernet signaling is long understood to generate clock/data signals that are audible in the ham bands. These signals can be identified once found on the receiver by turning off (including any UPS-powered) routers/switches that use Ethernet cabling. Dave, NK7Z, has a nice tutorial on methods to identify RFI sources generally: https://www.nk7z.net/category/info/rfi-mitigation/i-have-rfi-series/ It sounds like you've done the good work of grounding and bonding, which can help with self-induced RFI (ask me how I know!), but it won't address RFI sources such as internal spurs in the radio or the other predominant sources cited above. 73, Mike, K8CN __ 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

[Elecraft] OT: Noise Reduction (NR) in FM Mode
Yeah, it's been all too many years, but hard limiters were not used in many designs and no FM detector is completely immune to noise. It brings back memories of just how loud and strong ignition impulse noise used to be back in the 50's before anyone did anything to suppress it! Used to roar through on 2 meter AM in the home station from cars hundreds of yards away at times! I was kidding about Motorola/ Working in land mobile with E.F. Johnson equipment, "Motorola" was always in our sights ;-) We did very well in the San Francisco area because we did have superior repeater sites. The Motorola gear was very good stuff as was the E.F. Johnson.

Re: [Elecraft] OT: Noise Reduction?
It's doubtful you will be able to do this without some digital processing involved. You need to sample the signal and then apply adaptive digital filtering with the ability to decern between noise and voice signals. What you're asking is a very complicated thing to do. Analogue will give you filtering but will not be able to get rid of all the noise since noise itself is a complex waveform. If you want to try a noise gate, you may get some success. Several used Behringer gear found on ebay have noise gates for not alot of money. To some extent, DSP can do what you're asking as long as the noise is not really strong. Then again, DSP will reduce the noise by the amount of Noise Reduction capable within the unit. I think what you're trying to do is build an adaptive squelch. There are people working on this very concept right now. Regards, Robert VE3RPF Martin wrote: Hello elecrafters, i am looking for a device to reduce/eliminate the noise of a 2m ssb-receiver.
