After several months of just not listening to my 2 meter base station,

I
finally took time to find the source of the interference that held the

it
was my Dlink DI-604 router. I borrowed a Linksys NR-041 router from my
neighbor and it works a little better. I can now listen to the 145.390
repeater, not because the Linksys puts out no RFI, but only because it

puts
it out in a different place (mostly in the 146.46-146.58 range). I will
probably invest in a newer router, probably wireless. Question I have is
does anyone have any experience with the new breed of wireless routers

that
are reasonable clean in the RFI/2 meter spectrum? Thanks.


I've heard from more than one source regarding D-link routers causing
interference. Seems the switching PS is causing problems in HF radios.
The company says it does not have a problem.


I replaced a Linksys 4 port router with a Belkin to get a spur off the local
repeater. It was so strong I could not squelch it out. Not sure where the
Belkin puts the spurs if it has them.
