This is a response to "Smooth"'s post earlier about AIMS inverters. This appears to be just the tip of the iceberg on AIMS products from what I am hearing among the amatuer radio community. I am just the latest VICTIM.
I have a neighbor ( 10 or 12 houses away) with an AIMS inverter which is spewing noise from 1.8mhz through and above 50mhz. This radiation can be heard up to 3/4 mile away. Any, that's ANY wire connected to the a/c outputs, whether an extension cord or merely a test lead from a volt meter acts as an antenna and radiates on the afore mentioned freqs. Are these units FCC type accepted I wonder, because this unit's interference to a licensed station flies in the face of so many FCC rules I can't even count them. What has the group found about filtering these units, has anyone had any discussions with the manufacturer on this issue? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for reading.
