Re: A new way to shut off a PC
Your problem with the Seasonic wasprobably aging capacitors Max.
Lifetime of electolytics is an inversefunction of temperature and some specific makes were very poor.
A PC PSU is basically always

Re: A new way to shut off a PC
Agree power supply can caused weird faults. I had one where the PC could not be turned on with the front panel switch, but would turn on if the main AC outlet switch was cycled. Friend had same PSU

Hi Ken,
Everything in the PC has been cleaned, each fan checked or replaced when necessary.

Re: A new way to shut off a PC
Hi Michel,
Does the video card have a fan on the GPU? If so, cleaning the blades and cooling fins of dust might help. I had a video card in an old PC several years ago that was so clogged with

NDB - Airspy HF+ DIscovery versus Hermes Lite 2
For anyone interested. 132ft end fed antenna. 20:26 in evening. NDB is CHT (Chilterns) 277 kHz at 61 miles NE from my home QTH. As you can see I've isolated the CW sideband but that's irrelevant as

Re: A new way to shut off a PC
We are almost there !
Without the graphics card, the PC no longer switches off when SDR Console is launched.
SDR Console is thus totally cleared. My mistake.
So, two possibilities remain: the aging

Re: 137MHz "V" Antenna advice needed ...
I made a qfh from a wodden support and 2 stiff wires bent into qfh shape
Easy to build
Hidden in a tree so xyl friendly :-)
I have to check what size i used.. But what i sure do remember.. I first

Every ground plane I’ve ever seen has been connected to.. a ground!
The “active” part of the 1/4 wave is usually connected to the center conductor of the coax, the ground plane is connected to

Re: A new way to shut off a PC
Yep, Simon, HardwareMonitor is already installed. No temperature problem reported.
I refined the tests:
- running SDR Console without any SDR connected: OK
- connecting the SDR to the PC: OK

Re: 137MHz "V" Antenna advice needed ...
That makes sense ... many thanks.
I have a box full of 750mm telescopic aerials so this was a very cheap starting point ;-)

A lot of Daves on here giving advice!
The reflectors on the illustrated V antenna are simply forming a ground plane, and they should NOT be connected to the feedline. Ideally, they should be

Re: 137MHz "V" Antenna advice needed ...
Dave,
If you are going to build something the QFH antenna would be a better choice
for APT/LRPT 137 MHz reception, for example:
https://www.satsignal.eu/wxsat/equipment.htm
but search for more

Connected... Yes
Grounded... Yes (coax shield)
But I'm currently in a Hilton, not a Holiday Inn... so I am not a rocket scientist yet, but maybe on the next trip?

I am making educated guesses here.
Yes, connect them together to the shield of the feed line. I am not sure what you are trying to achieve here, though.

Re: 137MHz "V" Antenna advice needed ...
It's NOT a Yagi - this picture (see HERE) is similar to what I am building but for 137MHz (the one in the pic is for a higher frequency).
The two dipole elements are horizontal and 120
