New EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) forum goes live!

With an ever increasing population of electronic devices and seemingly ever decreasing market surveillance and Regulation, the need for vigilance by radio users everywhere and of every ilk; amateur, SWL, broadcast listener etc, has never been greater.

Following the tremendous response to the PowerLine networking information site www.plt.g7cnf.me.uk, Nige has observed the lack of a coherent lobby for those suffering from more general forms of interference like plasma TV, SMPSU and other as yet unidentified forms of QRM.

There is a wealth of knowledge and experience in the EMC and amateur community but even the most experienced occasionally come across something they don't recognise so, for the novice and advanced user alike, there is now a place to focus those discussions and it is welcoming new members.

The site is not aimed specifically at radio amateurs but rather hopes to attract members from across the diversity of electrical and electronic engineering disciplines in the hope of establishing a coherent, friendly EMC community open to everyone.

The board can be found at www.qrm.me.uk and is colloquially named "Don't QRM.me.uk".
