![]() "Bruce in Alaska" wrote 1. Buy a different fan that doesn't make noise in the MF Radio Spectrum. They do make them..... I have two different fans - I will test them. The refrigerator fans don't cause noise, but they are powered from refrigeration Danfoss module, while noisy fan is powered direct from panel. 2. See if you can supress the noise coming out of the current fan, with the appropriarte Ferrite Beads, and ByPass Capacitors, or get one of the fancy NUMAR or Ormicon Noise Filters for the DC wires feeding the fan. (wires most likely are acting like an antenna) I will look at Radio Shack/The Source and see what they offer. Would it help to use a shielded power cable? 3. Get ride of the fan altogether.....or maybe just turn it off while your listening to the radio. The fan is required to keep the refrig compressor compartment at acceptable temperature - Maybe if I moved to Alaska I could turn it off ![]() our choice is cold beer or music. As another option, I could relocate the AM/FM antenna - it is quite close to the DC power panel. Could use one of those VHF/AMFM splitters and eliminate AM/FM antenna altogether - would that help? |
