BASIC Desktop Computer RFI Kit - AC Powered

This RFI kit is specifically selected to suppress most household computer device RFI problems. It contains a large ferrite ring for AC power supply protection and Snap On ferrite split bead filters selected to eliminate RFI from 1 to 300 MHz. The beads are easy to use, don’t require modification of the protected equipment and work in almost all cases, even when plug-in filters fail.

The RFI-Desktop kit is meant to be used with a AC powered computer (desktop type) with up to 6 input/output signal lines and an AC power cord line coming into the device. Included are one large ferrite ring filter and six, 3/8” inner diameter snap on split ferrite bead filters for the input/output lines.

Installation is easy. AC power cord through ring filter multiple times and snap on filters on I/O cables nearest computer - problem cured!

For additional devices like a printer and AC powered speakers, consider the Deluxe Desktop RFI Kit with additional filters.

Portable operation is fun but also brings challenges to the radio operator concerning receiver “noise” levels, RF interference from adjacent sources including close by transmitting stations, and RFI from portable generators.  A typical scenario and some suggested Palomar product solutions are shown in the picture below:

Generator RFI testimonial:

Bob 

Received your order in a timely fashion. Tried the generator kit on Sunday & it drops the noise from S9 to S5 and 
took out all the electrical noise.  I may want some more toroids from you at some point for other interference problems
I have  here.
