[PCR-1000] Interference

Fri, 20 Sep 2002 11:30:00 -0700

I also have two PCR-1000 radios, running next to two computer systems, and two
21" monitors, and they run fine, with absolutely no problem at all.  I have
even looked for EMI through the bands, and find none.  When I received my
radios, I did two things that I do with ANY peripheral.  I upgrade the comm
cables to the best shielded ( braid AND foil )that are currently available,
and ferrite the DC power cables at the input to the device.  To me, this is
second nature, along with common sense things like checking to make sure that
ground paths are good, and single point.  Again, second nature.  I, too, am
one of the lucky ones.
