RDS HUM... Problem

Post by petermurphy »

HI Marko,
RDS Text working fine when hooked up. However I'm getting an intermittant hum which is very obvious when presenter stops speaking or when there is silence.
It can be good and then extremely bad..

Help....

I've had to take Rds off its so bad.

Well, for hum its probably power supply. You need to make
sure it is a stabilised type.

I do not know whether this unit is in enclosure.

How far is antenna from the transmitter? I hope not too close.

I would also try to move the cables around and make sure
all ground connections are good.

Test it when there is no music/speech, late at night if you have
to to keep your station on air.
