[Elecraft] OT: RF noise in solar photovoltaic system

[Alan Bloom]

I am now leaning on going with a local company rather than Solar City. 
They quoted a higher price for a lower-power system, but because of some 
convoluted accounting it will actually end up costing me less.  And they 
are at least willing to talk about adding some common-mode chokes. 
Their system uses micro-inverters on each panel, which potentially 
should cause less interference because all the switching  electronics is 
localized with short connections.  Only 240 VAC 60 Hz comes out of the 
panels.
