Re: [Flexradio] FlexRadio Digest, Vol 17, Issue 24
Hi Folks I see and receive the same moving noise signals here, and am very happy somebody found the reason for. As its anoying. I shall look at it now very close. But its always the same at such forums, as soon as somebody finds a bug, which other have not seen or are not able to see. He is attacked. The forum is here to help each other, even if its not always in the benefit of the producing firm. Finally it will be to their advatage as they can look at it and maybee fix it. But just to say I dont see nor have it is also not fair. So thanks to John who made a step in the right direction. 73 Chris HB9BDM [EMAIL PROTECTED] schrieb: Send FlexRadio mailing list submissions to flexradio@flex-radio.biz To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can reach the person managing the list at [EMAIL PROTECTED] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than Re: Contents of FlexRadio digest...

Re: [Flexradio] FlexRadio Digest, Vol 17, Issue 24
Chris, This subject has already been a topic three years ago on the Forum and so far I remember OM Ahti Aintila from Finland was the first to detect and replace the noisy dc-dc converter with an external power supply. Sorry to see old topics repeatingly coming up all the time while information is available in the archives. Before I used a notebook computer and my moving noise disappeared when pulling the plug of notebooks power supply. vy 73 de SM6OMH Willi - Original Message - From: Chris Gerber [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: flexradio@flex-radio.biz Sent: Monday, September 25, 2006 10:59 AM Subject: Re: [Flexradio] FlexRadio Digest, Vol 17, Issue 24 Hi Folks I see and receive the same moving noise signals here, and am very happy somebody found the reason for.

Re: [Flexradio] FlexRadio Digest, Vol 17, Issue 24
Willi, Thanks for remembering! Linear power supply/voltage regulator is always a good solution for low noise applications. Unfortunately, sometimes we cannot use them. Actually, now I'm using the original chopper with better filtering. You may add 47uF capacitor parallel to C7 and double the values of L2, L3, C8 and C9. Be careful though, the chopper DC1 (NMA1215S) is very sensitive to all kind of overloads - even to the higher inrush current of the output filter capacitors! That's why higher inductance values will be needed. My suggestions are beyond the recommendations of the manufacturer and naturally, you violate the guarantee rules of FlexRadio, too. Anything you modify is totally at your own risk and responsibility. It may be my good luck only, that this modification has worked three years in my oldest SDR-1000 and about two years in the two other sets. For anybody else I suggest buying (or building) a quiet power supply with well filtered output voltages +13.8V and ±15V (±12V). 73, Ahti OH2RZ On 25/09/06, Willi Reppel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Chris, This subject has already been a topic three years ago on the Forum and so far I remember ___ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archive Link: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ FlexRadio Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com ___ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archive Link: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ FlexRadio Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com

While I agree with your concerns, I don't consider that anyone has been attacked. Mind you, I'm a third party reading the same threads. I see lots of frustration to problems that can't be readily solved. I see eagerness on the part of the same few people who have always been there to help and continue to be there for us. However, even these folks can become frustrated not being able to help as quickly as others would like. They are only able is help if they are familiar with the symptoms or if they can reproduce the problem as described. Failing that doesn't say, Your full of shit. NOW THAT'S BEING ATTACKED. What it says to me is, I wish da heck I could help you ole man but I need mo data. Possibly many of you would like to hear a more personalized message but these guys haven't been helping since you got your radio. Many have been helping since SDR-1000 was an infant and sometimes just maybe they don't feel like after a long day at the office taking the time to sugar coat their responses. Again, I haven't seen anyone rude. I've seen the TONE of complaints being out of line which is part of the frustration that many have for many different reasons, most of which aren't the fault of the SDR-1000 or the volunteers here that are helping us enjoy this radio. I won't bother with the cost per inch ratio of these radio or the cost per once ratio either. What I will say is that inch for inch (millimeters if you prefer), there's more to enjoy that any of the other RICE boxes on the market today. I believe that if we all exercise a bit more patience and be more specific with the nature of our problem when we report it here on this forum, we stand to get those problems solved more expediately than otherwise. By disagreeing with you Chris, I hope you don't think I'm attacking you. Best ragards to you Chris and to all on this forum that contribute to it's success.
