Title: Radio suppression Post by: thebigdogsix on August 09, 2011, 09:09:13 PM Hi
Ive been reading the msva manual (its my nightly book of choice at the moment) and was wondering what radio suppression actually is Title: Re: Radio suppression Post by: Manky Monkey on August 09, 2011, 09:33:45 PM Stops your ignition circuit interfering with other people's radio reception.
If the Government charges companies for radio licences, they have to give some guarantee the frequency will be useable. So the rest of us must shield our sparky bits with spark plug leads & plugs that are radio suppressed. Title: Re: Radio suppression Post by: thebigdogsix on August 09, 2011, 09:40:39 PM Oh i see
so how do i know if my leads are ok is my trike going to be ok as the engine was a "volume production" Radio Suppression June 2010 17/1 17 Application All vehicles fitted with a spark ignition engine. Note. Volume production vehicles can be assumed to meet this requirement unless evidence suggests otherwise. Requirements and Procedures 1.

So the rest of us must shield our sparky bits with spark plug leads & plugs that are radio suppressed. It also stops interference with any other electronics on or near your vehicle. All electronics must meet standards to stop them all interferring with each other. |
