That is, they have good transmission qualities. The fact that it still occured in your battery operated circuit supports this. Sounds like you have inadvertantly come across a great jamming tool. Good metal shielding should solve this as well as a bandpass filter if necessary. ---------- End of Message ---------- You can view the post on-line at: http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=7&p=1&m=105106#m106665 Need assistance?
