All I know is that my cheap poopy monitor is NOTORIOUS for causing noise on transmit<br>using a URI and a relatively high input impedance audio input to the transmitter.<br>Sometimes, this can be corrected by putting a 1k resistor across the drive to the transmitter<br>(the URI can easily handle that low of an impedance)<br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">From: kb8wlw@me.com<br>Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Noise Problem with URI and Voter Comment<br>Date: Tue, 4 May 2010 10:01:37 -0400<br>To: telesistant@hotmail.com<br><br>
<base>I thought I tried that, but will try again later today. I have used two different monitors, CRT and LCD.<div><br><div>

After some side discussion with a fellow lister, I understand this would be very difficult to implement. Is there another alternative to time based GPS interface? I know it would not be "true" voting, but may be helpful in some cases. Would it be possible send time data to get the signals close and then select the receiver based on receiver signal strength?<br>><span class="ecxApple-converted-space"> </span><br>> Now for my real question. I have looked through the archives and did not see anything, but I am suffering a noise problem. Ok I know what your thinking, it must be a ground loop. But I do not believe it is and I tried grounding everything. Let me give some history. I first setup Asterisk on a laptop and connected to a 900 MHz GE net station (again, thanks Doug for the help putting it on the air). Because the oscillator is always hot, you can here a carrier locally with an HT. Immediately I heard a high frequency whine that changed with screen changes on the computer. I tried three different computers and two other repeaters, a 440 Mastr II Station and home brew UHF Hamtronics. All of the configurations had the same noise. I even tried isolating some equipment offsite. During some trouble shooting, I noticed something that I thought was strange. I had the transmitter locked on the air by grounding the PPT line and when I stopped Asterisk by sending a "astdn.sh", th<br>> e noise stops.<br>><span class="ecxApple-converted-space"> </span><br>> The noise is only present when asterisk is running. The only thing in common is me and the URI.
