[SADXA] RFI PROBLEM

[Telegrapher]

According to a posting i read the other day, Sweden is pursuing the problem.

Apparently they are having the same situation and yes, the solar power 
systems,

components are indeed the problems.  Not sure if i still have the email 
with the

link for the story or not.  That's one of the reasons i have been 
hesitant about

pursuing solar power, possible noise mitigation  that would be harmful to my

ham radio operations.

THEY DETERMINED THAT THE NOISE WAS CENTERED AROUND 4.5 Mhz AND WAS CONSISTANT IN A 1 TO 2 MILE RADIUS FROM MY HOME NEAR INA AND THORNYDALE.An interesting factoid was that they found that the noise was strongest in the areas around homes and businesses that had solar panel arrays. My speculation is that the solar panel controllers are causing the noise which is then fed into the TEP system by those who are selling power back to TEP.ANY THOUGHTS ANYONE????A.J.
