If it is the defroster, most automatic defrosters run on a 4-6 hr cycle, lasting 20-40 minutes in length. During this time, heater elements melt the ice in the evaporator section (inside the freezer)

Help!  We suddenly need a new refrigerator, so am looking to find out which ones are RFI generators and which ones are established as clean.  Any input?   73, Jim W6YA _______________________________

Virtually all electronics runs on some form of SMPS; some products may have variable-speed motor controllers. Most noise is conducted to the power cord, then to house wiring. All of that AC wiring ra

Hi Jim (W6YA), Others may chime in with specific model recommendations, but I'll note that modern refrigerator/freezer units that attain a good Energy Star rating invariably use PWM control of air ci

I took a portable SW receiver to the showroom when we bought our new fridge and listened, and got the most RF quiet one my wife liked... I also told them, I wanted THAT refer, not a different one whe

Hi Jim McCook 'YA My refrigerator RFI story . . . I had what sounded like broadband white noise. Noticed it on 80 meters (during the day while band was closed). Shut off power to my house, and the wh

Go to a used appliance store and get a General Motors Frigidaire or General Electric Combination. My GE was made in 1972. Still going strong and quiet. You'll never get anything like that today. 73 R

Alan, Rob, Dave, Mike, Jim....thanks for all the helpful responses.  We're dealing with a 36" built-in space, which is limiting choices.  I'll be prepared to deal with RFI with a big clamp-on or two,

I won't regurgatate what has already been related. Yes, our new frig/freezer pretty much flattened HF. I had to install a rather robust common mode choke on the line cord. While I can still detect it

Yes, the designed-in MTBF of the average modern frig/freezer is 5 to 6 years. We got 7 out of our first new unit with this house. We replaced it with a Kitchen Aid about which I've already related th

Hi Jim, Here is a link to a video of mine from 2 years ago regarding RFI at W9RE from a neighbors refrigerator and it shows what we had to do to mitigate it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDB8rAwVt

In my case, a recent LG model, low-level switching spurs are radiating from the door's multifunction display and diminish to nothing at the AC power cord. I used a portable SDR transceiver with a pan

Yes, the interactive display which is at the top and internally mounted in our "new" Kitchen Aid frig/freezer screams with RFI. I don't even need to invoke the preamp in the TinySA to easily detect i

Today we bought a SubZero fridge that had the full electrical function, not just display mode.  We have a 36" wide x 84" high built-in space, so choices are limited.  My Sony portable detected a mino

Our choices were even more limited -- only 32-in width! A poorly designed built-in, done by a neighbor. The microwave was so "built-in" that our carpenter had to demolish the lower molding to get it
