Variable speed motors are in style now due to energy efficiency.   From what I've read, avoid (continuously) variable speed motors.  Use a motor that has a fixed number of speeds (windings).  The variable speed controller may cause RFI.  You may want to discuss RFI with the vendor but they may give you a "deer in the headlights" look.

Years ago, my oil burner ignitor / ignition coil was upgraded to a newer model.  I now can hear the ignitor mixed in with KYW1060 news radio.  Fortunately the ignitor turns off in about 30 seconds.  I also hear the ignitor mixed in with my audio distribution system - it's very low level, but it's there.

Subject: [SJRA-Members] Club QSO Party Rules
Message-ID: <42FE103788694D2BABB404FBE2DEC84D@JohnPC>

Hi all
      Amateur Radio Club QSO Party rules are attached.   The objectives are to publicize all participating radio clubs ages & history while encouraging activity on the bands and club station activation.

     This year's party will be held on Oct 13th 1800 UTC (14:00 EDST)  to Oct 14th 1759 UTC (13:59 EDST).  

     The objective is to work as many Amateur Radio Club members as possible and Listed Amateur Radio Club Stations.   

       ( a list of Clubs registering to participate will be provided soon as well as a signup list for SJRA members who wish to operate as K2AA/102 during the party.) 

        The rules have been changed a bit to make it easier for you to participate.   Some highlights of the changes are:
- shorter event lasting 24 hours
- fall date that avoided Father's Day
- contacts made operating your club call count for your individual score
- simple exchange - Club members Call/(club age) + Club Acronym    (SJRA for example)
                             -non-Club members    Call + Name
- sections will not be needed, nor used as a multiplier.  
- summaries need to be submitted by Nov 14, 2018 to count for awards.  
 
     Please share this message with Clubs who you think might be interested in participating as they need to register by Oct 10.  We are working with our web team to get these posted on SJRA.org   I'll be available at the next club meeting,  to answer questions, on Wed, Sept 26  (also Consignment sale nite)  Thanks all for your support of this QSO Party  - see ya on the air. 

John, W2FDJ

Over the past year my shack grew by 2 feet, but I lost above desk shelving supported by a wall that is no longer there.   My amps sat on that shelf.  I could build another shelf.   However, I'm considering a computer telco rack to sit in that new space.  Anyone have ideas for rack equipment vendors, new or used?  I don't need rack sides or a door.  I need 2 or 4 rails and bracing to tie them together.   This rack can be freestanding or attached to walls.  I also need shelving for non-rack mount equipment.  I may spend more time on Craigslist and/or ebay.  Looking for ideas.  URLs appreciated.
