When I have been running SO2R with the MK2R+ SO2R box from Microham there has been a problem with a ground loop between the LF from both transceivers. So this weekend I spent some time going throgh my junk boxes for some audio transformers. I found 2 pairs of 600 ohm audio transformers, took them out of their plastic casings and made a new HF proof one out of PCB board. Perhaps ugly but it works, no one will see it anyway since it is hidden.:)\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tNow the audio coming from the SO2R box is perfectly clear and without annoying &quot;hum&quot;. Still have some stuff to do during next week. Beverage boxes need to go back into the woods after thuder season and an antenna needs some repairs. Hopefully I will get everything running before the weekend !\n<\/p>\n[Not a valid template]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This weekend I started preparing for SAC (Scandinavian Activity Contest) that will take place next weekend (CW) and the SSB [&#038;hellip<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[5,6],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/sm0w.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/sm0w.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/sm0w.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sm0w.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sm0w.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=258"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/sm0w.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":259,"href":"http:\/\/sm0w.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258\/revisions\/259"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/sm0w.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=258"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sm0w.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=258"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sm0w.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=258"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
