Dear Bruker folks,
There is a possibility of a mobile phone tower being erected near our
site. The concern I have is what are the possibilities of RFinterference
from this source. Our system operates at 100 MHz, which is in the middle
of the FM radio band, and is located in a sheilded room. I have had no
trouble up to now from RF interference. The phone company has not
released to us what their frequencies are however I would expect them to
be much higher than 100 MHz and therefore not a problem. My question is
has anyone experienced trouble from external RF caused by things like
mobile phone towers in higher frequency NMR systems? I would expect not
given that systems are well shielded however I would be interested in
comments.
Thanks,
Lachlan
