[OZAPRS] 145.175 MHz and 100Mb LAN interference

[Peter Mudie]

Hi Guys,

I have had the same sort of issues from 100Mb onto 2m and I have often 
found that the clip on ferrites with 1 or 2 turns of network cable at the 
offending network card or switch can help too in addition to the other 
suggestions.

I have not had to restrict any networks to 10Mb though.

Peter.
