The _Sci.Electronics FAQ: Repair: RFI/EMI Info_ document, authored by Daniel 9V1ZV, provides a detailed analysis of computer-generated RFI/EMI, focusing on its impact on radio reception. It identifies common RFI sources such as CPU clock rates (e.g., 4.77 MHz to 80 MHz), video card oscillators (e.g., 14.316 MHz), and even keyboard microprocessors, all of which generate square-wave harmonics across HF and L-VHF regions. The resource outlines a systematic procedure for pinpointing RFI origins, including disconnecting peripherals and using a portable AM/SW receiver with a ferrite rod antenna to localize strong interference sources. The document categorizes RFI mitigation into shielding, filtering, and design problems, offering practical solutions for each. It recommends applying conductive sprays like _EMI-LAC_ or _EMV-LACK_ to plastic casings of radios, monitors, and CPUs to create effective Faraday cages, emphasizing proper grounding and avoiding short circuits. For filtering, the guide suggests using line filters, ferrite beads, and toroids on power and data lines, and small value capacitors (e.g., 0.01 uF for serial/parallel, 100 pF for video) to shunt RFI to ground. It also discusses the use of bandpass, high-pass, low-pass, and notch filters on the receiver front-end or antenna feed to combat specific in-band noise.

Constructing a dip oscillator provides radio amateurs with a fundamental piece of test equipment for resonant circuit analysis. This particular design, adapted by VK3YE from a concept by _Drew Diamond VK3XU_, details a practical build using readily available components. The unit incorporates four plug-in coils, covering a frequency range from **2.6 MHz to 55 MHz**, mounted on 5-pin DIN plugs for versatility. A salvaged two-gang air dielectric variable capacitor, fitted with a vernier reduction drive, serves as the tuning mechanism, with the smaller gang optimizing bandspread at higher frequencies. In practical application, the dip oscillator is used by setting the meter needle to approximately two-thirds scale. When the instrument's coil is brought near a tuned circuit under test, a noticeable dip in the meter reading indicates resonance. This allows for precise measurement of resonant frequencies in antennas, filters, and other RF circuitry, proving invaluable for homebrewing and troubleshooting. The design emphasizes short wire runs for stable operation, particularly at the higher end of its operational range.

The _Fuji-OSCAR 20_ (FO-20) amateur radio satellite, launched over six years prior, continues to operate reliably, despite a gradual decrease in its Nickel-Cadmium storage battery capacity and solar cell degradation. The satellite's power system can still supply approximately **10 W**, enabling operations. During the non-eclipse period, typically from mid-June through March, the satellite experiences a 0% eclipse rate, ensuring sufficient power generation. This allows for the potential operation of the onboard BBS, which had been previously suspended due to concerns about power shortages. An "eclipse rate" refers to the proportion of time a satellite spends in the Earth's shadow during each orbit. When the satellite's orbital plane is perpendicular to the sun's direction, the eclipse ratio becomes zero, meaning continuous solar illumination. Understanding these eclipse periods is crucial for managing satellite power budgets and scheduling operations, particularly for power-intensive functions like the BBS, which can now be considered for activation during periods of sustained solar exposure.

The "Shortish Guide to Using an Oscilloscope" elucidates the fundamental operation of oscilloscopes, detailing the purpose and function of vertical, horizontal, and triggering controls. It explains how vertical gain in Volts/cm and horizontal scale in sec/cm enable measurement of signal amplitude and timing, respectively. The resource differentiates between analog and digital scopes, noting that digital scopes often feature "soft" controls and are inherently storage scopes capable of capturing non-repetitive events. The guide dedicates a significant section to the critical role of oscilloscope probes, emphasizing their design to transmit waveforms without distortion or added noise. It explains the concept of a 10x passive scope probe, which reduces circuit loading by a factor of ten and eliminates waveform distortion through probe compensation, typically adjusted using a 1kHz square wave reference output. The document also provides practical advice on probe care and compensation procedures. Further sections address grounding considerations, explaining how a scope measures voltage relative to its chassis ground, which is tied to the protective earth. It offers troubleshooting steps for a blank screen and outlines essential good practices, such as checking input gain and probe attenuation, while explicitly warning against misusing probes or connecting the ground clip to mains voltage.

A 144 to 148 MHz J-pole antenna, optimized for base station use, is presented with detailed construction plans. This slim, omnidirectional, half-wave antenna is fed at the end through a quarter-wave shorted transmission line, drawing inspiration from the classic _Zepp antenna_. The design emphasizes achieving a 1:1 VSWR and good efficiency on the 2m band, noting that even a one-percent error in calculation can significantly impact performance. The article provides specific dimensions in inches for the radiator, quarter-wave section, and feed point, along with a parts list for construction from inexpensive materials, estimated at approximately **$10** total cost. The resource offers practical construction tips covering copper pipe selection, L and T joint variations, and detailed soldering instructions using a propane torch. It addresses feedline attachment, the critical role of a four-turn, _5-inch diameter_ choke to prevent coax radiation, and proper antenna fastening techniques, including grounding for lightning protection. The author explicitly advises against scaling the design for other bands due to potential efficiency loss and offers guidance on corrosion protection. The antenna design has been released into the public domain for private amateur use.
