I waited all day for the new HP 2311x LED monitor. At 4:30 PM I checked into the FexEx site and it said that at 12:30 PM it was signed for by someone. Well FedEx left it at the apartment office. So I got the new monitor. It is nice. I think it is sharper. I do know that the whites are white and now I can see on the monitor that the whites now appear a bit yellow or off white. I never noticed it until I put this new monitor next to the old one. Well I have found a problem. When I turned the LED monitor on my ham radio went crazy. It had been on all day and not a sound out of it. The LED monitor is transmitting interference. I had to take my ham radio all the way into the kitchen for it to stop. When I came back into the bedroom with ham radio I tuned off the LED monitor and the interference came to a stop. The ham radio was set to two meter VHF repeaters. I did not check on 440 mHz. If you are a ham, shortwave listener or someone that uses VHF for something you may have a problem with an LED monitor. Howard’s Notebook: hnbbs.net

Bhi Noise Away! by G0MRR. Elimate white noise and unwated interference.WMV
The bhi ‘Noise Away’ Amplified Noise Elimination Module is a compact easy to use, microprocessor controlled, in-line solution for noise and interference problems in voice/radio communications. Using unique fully adaptive DSP noise cancellation, unwanted noise and interference is removed to leave clear speech with virtually no distortion of the voice signal. “Effective but exspensive. Would I reccomend! YES! Worth every penny!” See my video on Stealth Antenna www.youtube.com 16-02-2012 I have been asked “Whats is it like with CW” Its very good on SSB I do not find it works well on CW . If you use a computer program like MRP40 morse decoder or any morse decoder then IT IS NOT GOOD! The morse decoders have their own filters embedded in the programme software and therefore do not mix well with the HBI Noise Away. I therefore only use the Bhi Noise Away with SSB and not with CW Mode. Its easy to disconnect for CW use. Therefore I would advise you not to buy if you use CW only. I hope this helps you. 73s from CHRIS.
LightSquared Network Interfering with Military GPS
Transcript: BY DANNY MATTESON You’re watching multisource tech news analysis from Newsy. Lightsquared’s plan to launch a nationwide, wholesale, satellite-based 4G LTE broadband network has hit a few significant snags recently. The Colorado Springs Gazette explains. “A planned nationwide wireless Internet system could jam even the military’s use of Global Positioning Satellites while rendering civilian GPS receivers, from in-car navigation systems to those in cell phones, useless, Air Force Space Command’s top general told a congressional committee Thursday.” So what does Lightsquared plan to do about their interference issues? According to Bloomberg move their signal as far away from GPS as possible. “LightSquared … said it would initially forgo using its airwaves nearest to GPS. It said the move would cut interference to more than 99 percent of GPS devices.” But according to TV Technology the FCC doesn’t think that’s good enough. “…using the lower 10 MHz showed significant improvement compared to tests of the upper 10 MHz, although there continue to be interference concerns … with certain types of high precision GPS receivers, including devices used in national security and aviation applications.” Lightsquared’s principal backer, Philip Falcone (Fowl-Cone), however, says the problem isn’t on their end. It lies with the GPS manufacturers, who are encroaching on their airwaves. He tells CNBC… “…the reality of it is they’re interfering with us. We’re not …
