we're talking about Electromagnetic Compatibility testing here right?

[Apache]

yep

[gwh200]

yep

So EMC testing isnt "early morning cuppa"...trying out the cupholders....

[Apache]

Well, thats the very first process before setting up the job, yeah

[jmc303]

sounds like fun. Whats the top frequency tested? do they test response to HIRF? (if you're allowed to comment)

[Apache]

We're doing these to Def-Stan 59-41, so 18GHz (rad emissions, I assume you're talking about). I cant comment on the OWNER of said vehicles however. I wont be doing any HIRF. It's only starting to be specced for aircraft. There's no current requirement for land vehicles to be subjected to HIRF levels.

I expect you are at Scabbeywood? Know it well from my previous job, which I obviously cant talk about.

[jmc303]

Nearly but not quite, I'm down the road from there.

[Apache]

Not MoD then? Let me think... Thales?

Just racking my brains if I know anyone else with a Surf in my game

[jmc303]

Nope not them either :P

[Apache]

Oh well.
