It's worth pointing out to the non-BBC watchers that there are no commercials/adverts on the BBC. They get their money through the license fee. So, basically, we are paying for the privilege/opportunity to watch television without any commercials or advert breaks. It's nice for films, where there isn't an interruption every 20 minutes (unless you need the toilet, of course). We also have the opportunity to complain about BBC services, since we're paying for them. It also helps keep them politically neutral, since they don't have sponsors to worry about. Michael.

From: Andrew McCallum Sent: 09 August 2012 09:12 To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: [PSES] EU sets EMC limits for London Olympics For a very small Licence fee the BBC provide TV, Radio and internet services which dominate the market. Compared to the costs of Sky and Virgin media its easily in reach of anyone who can afford a TV/computer. You only need one licence per household - so you can have as many TV's as you like. Sky and Virgin both charge extra for set top boxes in additional rooms. The BBC is a leading innovator in the industry with HD and the iPlayer being two recent successful additions. Many of their programs are regularly top of the viewing lists (ok many of them are SOAPS/gameshows but it keeps the masses happy). Their science and nature programmes are the best around and they also put on many cultural events that would not be available otherwise - Last Night of the Proms etc etc. The problem I see with the BBC is that its so dominate that independent TV and news services struggle to come up with financial models that will work. With advertising revenue being squeezed the only option is to charge and people have to choose to pay. Sky and Virgin are slowly making inroads but it costs.

Re: [PSES] MIL STD 461E NECESSARY BANDWIDTH
Ralph: I used the ancient HP-85869PC data acquisition software, and HP (being conservative) used a 1 Hz RBW for implementing an Average detector. They did this to extend the HP-8566B’s capabilities to commercial EMI testing. (For Quasi Peak, they needed an external filter and detector box that was inserted in the 8566B’s IF chain.) However, the 461 detector is always supposed to be a Peak detector. (Except for CS101, where the limit is expressed in terms of Vrms.

The contract will call out which specific Test Methods (including variations) are applicable, so if CE106 is in the contract, believe me, it is mandatory. True, the early 461 was just taking an educated whack at controlling intentional emissions to nothing more than was reasonable and economical to achieve. There was little justification to why 5% was better than 7%, other than the ancient relationship to half the number of allocated fingers. (BTW, can you imagine a world in which 7 fingers or toes per hand or foot gave rise to a base 14 numerical system?) Lastly, why would you use a different RBW to measure the fundamental versus the spurious emissions? I would think that the only way to accurately measure the peak of a spurious was the same way that you measured the peak of the fundamental.

I’m might be talking out of my hat now, but when MIL-STD-461 was first written way back when, I’m sure that they were really only thinking in terms of AM/FM modulation - 40 MHz wide OFDM and 1GHz wide FMCW devices weren’t probably envisaged. Since, in my experience, CE106 isn’t actually Mandatory for selling a product, I would do the test in a way that seems reasonable for the operation of your product, document what you’ve done and why, and discuss/explain to customers as required.

So if the necessary bandwidth is greater then +/- 5% it is still excluded. Speaking in generalities, the necessary bandwidth of whatever kind of transmitter it is, probably has some kind of Spectral mask requirement that is not a MIL-STD-461 requirement.

[PSES] Ophir Amplifier 5127F for Rent?

Calibration fields were easily repeated prior to testing. Very stable amp. The one we have now seems to have some sort of instability - the field strength in our chamber varies 3-5 V/m [in a 60 V/m range...] even setting the system for a single frequency and constant power. Would like to see if we could find one that we know is suitable while we investigate the variance.

I have an Amplifier Research 25A100 amplifier that developed a gain stability problem after 20+ years of use and several over-power incidents caused by several individuals including myself. Turns out that the carbon composition resistors used in the drain-to-gate feedback of the output stage had gotten tired of all the abuse.

Re: [PSES] France no longer having restriction on WIFI ?
It's hard to imagine needing more that 100mW at that frequency for short range (say 30m) ___ Ralph McDiarmid | Schneider Electric | Solar Business | CANADA | Regulatory Compliance Engineering From: jasmine tan jastan...@hotmail.com To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Date: 08/10/2012 01:04 AM Subject: [PSES] France no longer having restriction on WIFI ? Dear Folks, I had heard that as of July 1, 2012, France removed the 100 mW indoor use requirement . Thus the Alert Symbol (!),is no longer required. Does any one has the officail documents to verify this rumour. Please share with me, Thanks in advance.

[PSES] Novel transmission line equivalent circuit
Hi Everyone, This month my Technical Tidbit is written by Tim Maloney of Intel for publication on my site. He has devised a very good transmission line equivalent circuit than makes it easy to understand transmission line impedance behavior as a function of line length and termination impedance. Here are the details: Technical Tidbit - August 2012 Novel Equivalent Circuit for Zin of an Arbitrarily Terminated Transmission Line (Written by Timothy J. Maloney) Abstract: A new equivalent circuit for Zin of an arbitrarily terminated transmission line is presented, one which employs only lumped impedances and short and open line stubs in series‐parallel combination. The new picture readily illustrates concepts of line matching and impedance inversion at quarter‐wave frequencies, and also offers insights into transient and off‐resonance response.
