[PCR-1000] Wireless Network...

[Jeffrey P. Bakke]

I have a 802.11b wireless card in my Inspiron 8100 laptop that I use to 
control both my Ft-847 via CAT and my PCR-1000.  Basically, I find that 
normal receiving is pretty much unaffected by the wireless card except that 
it generates a bit of noise in the AF sound card input because the card is 
placed directly above the sound card input.  I put a "whatchamacallit" RF 
choke on the audio input cable near the laptop end and almost all the noise 
disappeared.  I generally run with the wireless card in place without any 
problems.  When I do get a problem, it takes all of 15 seconds to disable 
the card and pop it out.

Cheers
