I've been pondering the most economical way to approach added filters
to this particular light and I've come to a conclusion.
Emacs!
After determining that I COULD do a really on-purpose looking
filter assembly and connector on the rear housing for this
fixture, the machining time would probably not let me sell
an upgrade for what I'd like to get for my time.
At the same time, any 'fix' for this particular product would
be unique to the product. The LED lighting industry is
exploding with new products. There's more than a small risk
that the expense of $time$ to develop a noise-mod for this
particular light would become obsolete when some new kid
on the block shows up with a different package.
Sooooo . . . plan D . . . or E . . . or what ever it's
up to at the moment.
Emacs!
Here's a 'universal' double-pi filter board laid out to accept
ferrite chip attenuators and
Emacs!
. . . ceramic chip capacitors. Unlike the broadband filter in the
first picture, the effectiveness of this filter is centered on
the VHF nav and comm frequencies. By constraining its performance,
I could get it to fit on a 0.3 x 0.6 inch board. As you can
see, packaging is not elegant but it's simple and adaptable to
a wide range of fixtures. I'll be offering this filter assembly
on the website catalog in a few days . . . as soon as I ge time
to write the product information document.
In the mean time, who's light fixtures do I have? I'll return
them to you with one fixture modified as shown. The other fixture
is 'stock'. There will also be an assembled filter packed loose.
Do what ever testing you can on the filtered assembly and decide
for yourself whether or not it's worth your trouble to add
the loose filter to the second fixture.
Bob . . .

Hey Bob,
I notice your emails are arriving a day in the future... have you
mastered the time machine, or is your computer confused about the date? :-)

Thanks! I'm putting 90% done and 90% to go on setting
up a new computer. My ol' P4 machine was getting long
in the tooth . . . nearly 10 years old. I'm planing some
video production and thought it would be nice to have
a bit more byte-thrashing snort. Picked up a dual-core,
3.2G machine with lots of RAM for $150 delivered to my
door (aint eBay wunderful?). Put a dual screen video card
in it and I'm really enjoying the up-tick in responsiveness.
Now I'm finding out how 'nice to have' bits of software
still need to be chased down and installed. Got the
date fixed! As Eric noted a few days ago, the advances
in video hardware are amazing. The stuff I've acquired
new to my desk is a generation or more old and STILL
of astounding value and capability . . . and dirt cheap.
Bob . . .
