All: A few years ago, I posted a video on solar panel RFI and it's affect on HF. Since then, I've heard from many hams who've experienced the same issue. Most send emails but a few post comments on m

I'm just curious - have you contacted the FCC., or has the ARRL done so? This seems like a clear case of SolarEdge violating emission limits, which they are supposed to care about. 73, Pete N4ZR One

On what basis do you believe that the SE equipment is in violation of the emissions limits, Pete? The FCC rules set limits on radiated emissions above 30 MHz and on emissions conducted onto the AC ma

To quite a bit of good effect, Tony. First, cases do get resolved and to date, Solar Edge has replaced complete systems in about 500 cases nationwide, many of which involve amateur radio. There is n

There is an important factor here to keep in mind. PV systems are regulated by Part 15 of the FCC's rules. Under those rules, the manufacturers of devices that generate RF noise are required to do th

Ed, I think you're raising the point that the current standards for radiated and conducted emissions are seemingly inadequate and need to be revisited. Naturally, equipment vendors and manufacturers

My mistake, Ed.  I'd forgotten the "above 30 MHz" limitation on radiated emissions. 73, Pete N4ZR One of the RBN team On 12/12/2022 9:57 AM, Hare, Ed, W1RFI wrote: On what basis do you believe that t

No problem. Pete. I just see this one repeated often, until it takes on a life of its own. Even above 30 MHz, a legal emission could be as much as S9 to a nearby amateurs. My mistake, Ed. I'd forgott

This sounds good in theory, Gordon, but in reality, it is never going to happen to a level good enough to truly protect amateur radio. "Push back" would be too mild of a term and the US regulations a

Ed, Two things to consider here: As you pointed out the FCC can and does often address the effect of harmful interference and that was my point in saying, "quantified measurements and their effects".

The AM broadcasters are somewhat concerned, but not to the point where their organizations throw the level of resources that ARRL expends on these issues. In most cases, ARRL is not only the only ent

You can leap to the defense of Solar Edge and that's all well and good. Everyone should have an advocate. But I've been following this issue since it began, here on this email list and elsewhere, and

It would be interesting to know what their share of the US residential market is, to help explain what these numbers mean. 73, Pete N4ZR One of the RBN team On 12/13/2022 9:20 AM, Rob Atkinson wrote:
