    Big switching power supplies - what's the forum favorite?

    Parallel two of the 50A Megawatt supplies. They're built to be stacked.

    I'll have to go back to the website and check it out, but I think they will send me a copy of the letter. If they do, I will post it here.

    Exactly. Which is what the power company and I both tried to do, prior to the complaint. These people are very strange and private. Hopefully, the FCC sends one to the landlord as well. I have NO faith in the neighbor pounding on my door.

    In order for a field rep to show up I would need to file a FORMAL complaint, which would cost me over $600.00. I am not willing to spend $600 on an endeavor that may or may not solve my issues. I did file an informal complaint and the people will receive a letter explaining that they're been...

    This isn't quite true. According to FCC rule: "Your neighbor’s devices must not cause harmful interference: At the same time, FCC Part 15 (which covers most household electronics) says unlicensed devices may not cause harmful interference to licensed radio services. The CB Service is a...

    The one you uploaded is a 60hz buzz. Mine is exactly what you hear. Broadband hiss, or hash. No buzz.

    I've attempted to open a dialog with these folks for the 5 years they've lived here. The day they were moving in I introduced myself and offered to help them carry stuff. They grunted, never told me their names and kept walking. I've tried waving when seeing them in the back yard ... no...

    I'm going to keep all this stuff in mind in case I ever am asked for assistance in locating the problem. I doubt I'll ever get that call, but hopefully the FCC can put some pressure on these people.

    What year and why did you get into the Radio Hobby?

    1964 for me. My older brother got into it with an Winegard 1/2 wave ground plane and an RCA Mark VII radio. He was one of the first 5 people in the city to be on the air. Naturally, I began talking to his friends when he was not home. If I remember correctly, the radio had 4 channels, but a...

    I'm not sure what's available here for internet over power lines. I'm not aware of any. We have spectrum, Highline, and there's a wireless out of Northern Michigan University. But none of those have ever given me an issue. These folks have been here 5 years and the problem began about 3 or 4...

    Well, I didn't want to take it to this, but i ended up contacting the FCC via the web form. The good part is that I have already done my part in that the city has located and pinpointed the precise address. The city spoke with the tenants, who blew him off, and I spoke with the owners of the...

    They ARE a very good radio for the price. Someone wanting to get into a bit more sophistication could not go wrong with these.

    I've got a total of two hours on mine and it's back in the box and for sale. It's no where near the radio the Stryker 955 is. Some folks love these, I don't.
