as they just were a <strong class='StrictlyAutoTagBold'>bit<\/strong> tough\u2026 but the corn was good.<\/p>\n<p>Today they took off to go see Great Grandma and I stayed home\u2026 I had some things to work on and a <strong class='StrictlyAutoTagBold'>project<\/strong> that needed some attention\u2026 I had read that the digital sound card I had could be improved (noise reduction as it is used for very weak signal radio stuff) by swapping out the power connection for the outboard <strong class='StrictlyAutoTagBold'>USB<\/strong> through a 1k ohm resistor to the onboard 3.7 volt supply and use a 470 ohm resistor\u2026 I just needed a 1\/4 watt 470 ohm resistor?&#160; so I had to make a trip to Radio Shack and pick some up\u2026 The mods for the <strong class='StrictlyAutoTagBold'>USB<\/strong> Signalink can be best found at: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.frenning.dk\/OZ1PIF_HOMEPAGE\/SignaLinkUSB-mods.html\" target=\"_blank\">Signalink USB mods<\/a>.&#160; I didn\u2019t try any of the other, just the power change to take the noise off from the <strong class='StrictlyAutoTagBold'>USB<\/strong> connection\u2026 This was also in the latest QST\u2026page 61\u2026 Now I had never worked with Surface Mount components before and I was not going to put <strong class='StrictlyAutoTagBold'>one<\/strong> on but I had to remove the 1k one\u2026 that was easier than I figured and came right off with out ruining the board ha!\u2026 I used the full&#160; length 470 ohm and put shrink wrap on the leads all but the very ends that I soldered to the board in the proper spots\u2026 and to my own amazement it worked\u2026 It did take a lot of noise off the low end of the receive area but I can\u2019t tell yet that I have that much more receive but the bands are crappy so more testing is in order\u2026 <\/p>\n<p>On my way into town today to get the parts, and dump some recycle glass at the recycle center I caught this\u2026 we had a huge set of visitors today?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ishmaels.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/1-IMG_1363.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"1-IMG_1363\" style=\"border-left-width: 0px;
