Hi all, I had a Generac 16KW generator installed early this year. The generator is specced to power my entire house load. Luckily/unluckily haven't had a chance to really try it out. Until today. Tod
This report corresponds to other reports we have received about Generac. They have responded to the few complaints about RFI and have indicated to HQ staff that they want to be known as the "RF quiet
Interestingly enough, a two S-Unit increase, and drop is about what I see during an outage as well... I have a Honda eu3000is, which is seems as quiet in the RF spectrum as it is in the audio spectru
I have a 20kw Generac (propane) generator right outside of my shack next to the house. I have never detected any RFI from it at all. My antennas are not near the house though. 73 Tom/K1KI Tom Frenaye
Tom, I also have a 18KW Generac ( Propane) and happy with it . But I have a question My Generac does a self test each 2nd Wednesday at 1pm ( runs foe 5-10 mins) I'm sure your generator does a self te
I test every Wednesday, and there is no interference to 2m or 10-40 that I noticed. 73 kc2ieb _______________________________________________ RFI mailing list RFI@contesting.com http://lists.contesti
It's critical to remember that THIS is what matters, not proximity to the shack. W6GJB's contesting trailer operates with two slaved 2000i generators on the back of his pickup, right underneath our a
I also have a 20 KW Generac (Natural Gas) which has shown no RFI either during weekly self-test or while powering the household HVAC, 220 VAC well pump, and other motors and equipment during outages
Unless your system is different than mine the self test does not throw the mains transfer switch and actually power the home. It just runs the generator. 73 Gedas, W8BYA EN70JT Gallery at http://w8b
Thanks for that very important observation, Gedas! Noise from generators (and most sources) is conducted to wiring, and the common mode component radiates into our antennas. With no operation of the
Hey Chris, your scenario is quite typical. If you turn off all the circuits in your house at the load center except for the circuit your radio is on and then turn off everything and unplug everything

Hi Chris, Just wondering if you had your DXE NCC-2 Noise Phaser turned on or off during your outage testing? 73, de ed -K0iL Hi all, I had a Generac 16KW generator installed early this year. The gene
Slightly off the Generac topic, taking a circuit off line at the breaker does not ALWAYS identify that circuit as the culprit. Remember house wiring is also an antenna and you might just be separatin
It was on, but not adjusted to zero out noise. Balance was in the middle between both antennas. There was no attenuation set. The phase knob is at 12oclock. The NCC2 requires adjustment every time I
