Re: Maybe for this group or if not...where
Geoff Eden
It is back interference from the modern switching power supplies. We used to use Transformers to render different voltages for the radio/television etc., but since the early 90s, we use fancy transistors to chop up the line voltage into little time segments to get lower voltage. The noise we get is from those transistors which generate incredible peaks, valleys, and harmonics. Some of the signal comes back down the plug and wire and some of it is radiated. So it's always a challenge to damp it out. There a good thing, however, or wall warts and laptop power cables would have to be a lot bigger and heavier.

There are things called line chokes which are comprised of a ferrous metal hoop through which you can wind a line cord and it will help to dampen down interference coming back up the power cable. They're not very expensive. Geoff

Re: Maybe for this group or if not...where
Georgina Joyce
Hello,
It wouldn't hurt getting a couple of those ferrite chokes and putting them on the lines. If on a power line put it on the cord as close as possible to the power source. You may have noticed that the more expensive USB cables, audio lease and power supplies will have a ferrite choke on them. I had a buzz with my AllStar MicroHub. I had a ferrite choke that I think was on a Decktalk Express serial cable. So I opened it out and wrapped the cable about 2 turns and closed it back together. Because the thin wire wasn't gripped I didn't think it would work. But it did very well. Very useful to have some kickingarond. Be careful though, I just brought some and they are not hinged.

Re: Maybe for this group or if not...where

Since the radio station is 780 KHZ, it is likely that the interference is not caused by the frequency used by the phone, but that it is getting interference from the digital circuits in the phone. Usually this happens if your radio is close to the answering system or that you have placed the wireless headphones near your radio. If neither is the case, check to see if the cords running to the answer machine might be passing close to your radio. Gina is right that an external antenna probably would correct this, but moving the answering machine or making sure your headphones are not near the radio should help.

Re: Maybe for this group or if not...where
Georgina Joyce
Hello,
I am guessing it is a Radio Frequency issue. Your wireless headsets transmit at a frequency that either matches or is a harmonic of that frequency of your radio station and the radio is dutifully playing what is transmitted on that frequency.. As they are wireless devices you cannot add chokes or filters to them. You could try ferrite chokes on the radio but I suspect that it is the radio's antenna picking up the headset signal. So you could try a number of things to separate the 2 devices. Use an external antenna for the radio. Put a large amount of metal between the radio and headset creating a Faraday cage so that the headset signal cannot reach the radio's antenna. See if the headsets have an alternative frequency that they use. Or encourage your wife to use a wired set of headphones. At least to test the hypothesis. If so, and that station is on 780MHZ then you 'll have to look for a different set of wireless headsets that don't use the same frequency that the existing ones do.

This is a audio related question, but has to do with a certain radio station and a wireless cell phone.

If If I am listening to the Chicago station and the phone starts ringing, usually for the wife, a loud whisteling noise happens and stays there till the call is finished. This only happens on this one station . I have tried unplugging radio, the phone system, but no change. If I change the radio station to another, all is well. I have tried moving the direction of radio, it is a digital one, with nothing any different. I am really sorry to ask this group about my issue, but it is audio related.

Re: a couple of questions re at8022 and at4022
Hamit Campos
It's not much different. The impedance drops to 250 I think it is maybe the self noise drops a bit and yes the most notable thing will be that on battery it can only take 120 DB SPL but on phantom it'll take 8 DB more. Not impressive but there it is. The quality goes up a bit too. With phantom it sounds a bit more like the AT-4021 it's based on. Neal had said he had made a menu tree for the H6 but I don't know what happened to it. neal.ewers@ravenswood.org is the email to try.

the 8022 in while the power is on. This is the case for any condenser. My guess is that it works fine on phantom power without the battery and in fact if you look closely at the spec sheet there may be a separate set of specs for phantom power operation and they may be augmented. Speaking of the H6 I would greatly appreciate it if someone could send us their notes on how to make various changes in the menu based parameters. There is a lot that can be accomplished by just counding the number of clicks and its crazy that each of us with an H6 has to figure it out independently with sighted help and make our own notes.

Re: a couple of questions re at8022 and at4022

Sure thing. You could though I don't do this much connect the 8022 to the H6 with the XY snap off peace on and into the mini jack on that. You'll see because of the dip between the H6 the snap off front and the right arm onto which the right mic is mounted for the H6 why I don't do this much. Now I don't know how that front peace looks on the F8N but who knows maybe it's better there.

Yes Hamit it was an error on my point. I did mean the AT2022 and I'm hoping to receive that next week. As for the AT8022. I take your point in setting up Phantom, but I could use them to check them out using their own internal batteries. I also like your suggestion, that in the meantime, I could use the mini jack with the 8022 and try plugging this into my very little DS50. Now I think this will lead to surprising results. I'll let you know the outcome. Very best wishes. Andy.

Hi Andy and Gena. Just to clarify a few things. Andy the 4022 is a completely different mike from the 2 we're discussing here. I'm sure you ment 2022 and typed 4 by axident. But the 4022 is the omni brother of the 4021 which is what the 8022 is based on. Now to the subject at hand. Yes the 2022 is battery operated only thus phantum indeed could damage it. As for the AT-8022 it came with a double A I'm sure Andy. You don't necessarily need phantom for the 8022 if you didn't want it. Sure if you are using it with XLRs it's best to do so to get the full beniphat of the mic. But also this mic comes with a mini XLR to 3.5 jack cable. This Andy is so you could use it with the DS-50 or something like that. But it is mainly for using the 8022 with a camera. You can mount the 8022 on a DSLR camera. As you can the H6. There ya go just wanted to clear things up. Andy just sent you a seperate message on how to turn phantom on and how to link the tracks. Note the XLRs that go into the H6 are different collors. Have your wife figure out which collor is which channal. I forget right now. I will say this though left goes towards the front of the H6 meaning in the XLR near where you snap on the snap off mics and in this case the right goes into the XLR near the menu levor. Just so as you know same applys to the left XLRs. Track 1 left channal is the XLR near the opening for the snap offs and the XLR near in that case to the card reader is Track 2 or right channal. I'd really love to hear the 8022 on the F8N though to see what it sounds like on truely pro gear.

Yes Gena. I've bought a pair of at 8022's and an AT 2022. Incidentally, a Youtube demo warns that never should the AT2022 be plugged into an XLr with Phantom turned on or the mic will be killed. The 2022 has it's own power in the form of a 1.5 Duracell battery. The AT 8022 does require Phantom so these XLR's should be supplied with power., but how much power? Very best wishes. Andy.

Hello Andy,
Yes, they are indeed condenser mics so need power. Did you say you got new ones? Regards, Gena On 30 Jul 2020, at 10:32, Andy via groups.io <meikle.aiden=btinternet.com@groups.io> wrote:Georgina Call: M0EBP DMR ID: 2346259 Allstar: 52178 Locater: IO83PS

a couple of questions re at8022 and at4022
Andy
Hi Hamit and all.
Just a couple of questions guys regarding the at 8022 and the at 4022. I've taken Hamit's advice regarding his view that 2 at8022's placed apart in an x y form will give me a broader stereo field rather then 1 microphone. I decided this because when recording my local 7 piece band the sound source is quite wide. So I've a lovely new pair of these. Now am I correct in thinking that these mics require Phantom power? If so, dealing with the H6 first, I could allocate channels and 4 for these micks and turn Phantom power on? In terms of channels 1 and 2, I turn Phantom power off completely as I'm intending to allocate these channels to my new at 2022, which should arrive next week These will satisfy my Dawn Chorus birdcall recordings. I need to set up the H6, not even going near the F8N until I've sorted out the H6. Any advice would be very helpful. As my sighted wife will be following your suggestions, it would be nice for an idiots guide because she has absolutely no interest in recording. Hoping everyone is fine and looking after themselves. Very best wishes. Andy. -- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
