Maybe an amplifier we can feed with a function generator to \nsimulate a sawtooth or ??? waveform from a few kHz to a few tens of kHz \nto better simulate the assumed dirty power source?\n\nWe really need to get an idea what to expect worst case from the S/C \npower system.\n\n> Shielding the CAN-Do inductor obviously won't solve all these problems but\n> it might buy back 2 inches of space and that's worth the effort.\n\nYes, we need to shield this if we can.\n\n> Lyle,\n> \n> My suspicion is that the two VCOs on this receiver are also the most\n> susceptible to radiated EMI from CAN-Do.

We should try and find a toroidal inductor to minimize \nradiation, then put a magnetic shield around it to suppress what the \ntoroid radiates.\n\n73,\n\nLyle KK7P\n\n", "attachments": [] }
