ICOM IC-7100 audio noise / interference problem and solution (also affects IC-7300)
In this video, I demonstrate parasitic noise at certain frequencies. The noise is generated by the PWM audio power amplifier inside these units. It essentially creates interference in the lower end of the HF spectrum. I demonstrate a solution I came up with, which is to replace the PWM audio power amp with a linear one. Not an easy modification, but not too difficult either.

What's it like to visit Sterling Vineyards, Calistoga California

In March 2024 I visited Sterling Vineyards. Although I've been traveling to the Napa and Sonoma area for more than 20 years, I'd never been here. I was greeted by something quite amazing. Quality of the experience was every bit equal to the top theme parks in the world, and the wines were also world-class as well. I highly recommend anyone stop by here and definitely plan to spend more than an ...

How to fix a noisy, vibrating Samsung dryer in 30 minutes for $25 or less
Very interesting observations; thanks! However, there’s one thing that doesn’t seem to make sense; maybe I’m misunderstanding the thinking here: What we really want is for the seal around the hatch to be evenly and thoroughly (but not overly) compressed. It would seem that, if we make the pressure on the stops high, then that would reduce the pressure on the seal, which in turn would make it seal less-well, wouldn’t it?
A loudspeaker has a "surround" made of rubber. It's part of the suspension. The purpose is to allow the speaker cone to move in an axial direction, but restrict rotary or radial motions. And a speaker is made to um.... speak! So no, all of the soft foam and even cushioning in the world will not help. Ideally you completely arrest all motion which will keep the trunk from "speaking" (compressing air) into the cabin.
I have that same flash light :)
Hi William I been looking at these for years how did you like it?
It's interesting. I purchased this to check their implementation. In the patent, the implementation was really nice, and really similar to Cambridge laser scanners made in 1992. That's what attracted me to this. I wanted to see how well an optical scanner pickup would work for a Bass guitar. But what they actually executed really wasn't all that good. (Sorry to say, but that's how I feel.) So their optical pickup is not very good. The patent is expired now so maybe someone will execute on the idea better. However, what I found fascinating was the Piezo pickups. The sound was very interesting and I think *somebody* could do something interesting here. But again, the implementation from Lightwave wasn't that great. They changed the Piezo part recently so maybe it's better now. Frustratingly, it seems that there are no Elon Musks inventing guitar and Bass pickups, at least not what I've seen...
@@WilliamBennerJr Thanks for the feed back, I have been going back and forth for a couple of years about buying one. But I see most people who purchase them sell them. I even talked to the owner of the company once who was offering me a deal. I do think its an interesting concept. But also dont want to purchase a bass that's going to sit there. If I get one at the right prince maybe I will pick one up.
Legend! Super easy to follow. Appreciate the help. 😂
Glad it helped!
I just had this issue when installing a Ring camera on a door in Florida. A lot of doors open outwards in Fl because of hurricane winds blowing open inward doors
Great video. Better than the Appliance Parts Pro and Repair Clinic. Mine just needed cleaning. Works like new.
Glad it helped!
Excellent!
Thanks for the kudos!
Idk if this is the issue with my dryer, but this is a good vid, very much appreciated
Thanks for the kinds words!
Impressive work on fixing the issue so efficiently!
Thanks for the kudos!
William, thank you so much for your video. My dryer is a Samsung with a small garment dryer on top, so I couldn’t get it apart as yours. I removed the filter and dared to put my hand inside, was able to rotate the blower wheel with two fingers and to my surprise it had chunks of compacted lint, after few arm scratches trying to get to the wheel 😂, problem solved!
WOW, that took some guts and some skill!
16:16 - Am I the only one who would have been thoroughly disappointed had he not tested it before installing the nut? Well done Sir.
Glad you liked it!
Yo you are a God send. This video helped me fix the issue. I was going crazy with the sound.
Yes, the video has been enlightening to many, and my local Tesla service station refers customers to this video as well. Glad it helped!
The video was simple, easy to follow and I really liked the simpler approach that was offered to the professional one. I decided to clean all of the lint off the fan, and see if that corrected my problem before removing the fan, and thankfully that was all it was! So no out of pocket cost and about an hour of my time. This probably would have been 100.00 repair for a professional call, so thank you very much. Next home repair I have will definitely check your videos to see if you cover the problem before I look anywhere else. 5 stars and a thumbs up.
Yes, I hoped mine was just clogged lint too, but it wasn't... Glad it worked out for you!
Yo, you have no idea how lucky I feel that I found your video. I was getting my ears a little stuffy while driving my YM on the freeway. I thought it had to do w altitude because I am a little up in the mountains and usually I drive down to LA. It wasn’t unbearable but it was there. The top left rubber “stopper” wasn’t making full contact, and the right one was not making a strong contact either. Did the envelope test on all of them after adjustments. All tight now. We will see how it turns out next time I drive to LA. I think it’ll take care of the issue. It just makes sense, my biochem professor used to say. Thank you. Will keep watching for more tips.
Glad my video helped!
Your video just saved me a bunch of money, THANK YOU!
Glad it helped!
I do maintenence for a vacation rental company and this video is the sheezy! It's gonna save me (and the company) sooo much time, money, and headaches! Thank you sir!!!
Happy to help!
Thank you! Mine was loaded with lint cleaned it out and it sounds almost brand new.
Yes indeed, seems that this is the case with many of them. Glad it helped!
Thanks
Thank you, i cleaned the fan and it sloved the problem for me.
Glad it worked!
Hello William. Great video but I don't see my problem I have 2 Vinotemp VT300SS dual zones. Both have the same problem. Top zones get cold and the bottom zones do not. Set for 50 and 55 respectively. Tops get there, bottom stays at 63 and 61. So continuously running. Lower fan is working on both units. I put frozen food packages next to all 4 thermostats and after a minute or so both units shut off. I bought both units (used) in February 2024 and they worked in the beginning. They were manufactured in 2017 (according to the stickers on the back of the units). Little by little the bottom of both starting to climb and now sit at the 63 and 61. I put thermometers in each zone and they agree approximately same 50/63, 50/61. Strange both units almost exactly the same time with same problem. I unplugged one of the units to see if the electric draw from same wall socket was too much. After 2 days, no difference on the plugged in unit. Can you help please? Thank you in advance, Jeff
Hmmm. That's very strange. If the compressor is constantly running, then I would think the innards would get very very cold. If not, then either there isn't enough refrigerant in the system so it's not cooling enough. Either that or you're effectively "leaking coolness" (heat leaking into the system), either because your environment is very hot, or because the gaskets aren't sealing well enough (the rubber around the doors). Here's a related question. Does the giant internal plate "evaporator coil" inside getting so cold that it ices up? If so, then your gaskets aren't sealing and that's the problem.
@@WilliamBennerJr Hi William. Thank you for replying. I had an appliance guy come over. He said the compressor was no good or it lost freon. I'm confused. I set the top zone as low as it goes (40degrees) I stopped it at 46 because I still had wine in it and didn't want the wine to get that cold. It would have gotten colder. And the zones are not completely sealed from each other so the top cold air would come down to the lower zone. How can it get so cold with low freon or compressor bad? We did notice the bottom fan was not staying on. Only short burst on and off. Could it be the fan?, thermostat?, or temperature sensor? They want 1500.00 to replace the whole system for each unit. I'm not convinced the compressor is bad. What do you think? Again, both units have the same problem. Strange. The units are about 4-5 years old. Thank you in advance, Jeff
@@jeffrantinella1345 Yes, I had an AC guy say the same thing about my units in the past. Definitely not the compressor or "lost freon" if one area remains cold. If it's a dual zone, then the fans inside which circulate the air from one part to another aren't working. You might be able to "hack it" by putting in your own fan, at least temporarily, just to demonstrate the problem or test the theory. If it does what I think it will, then the problem will either be a bad fan, or the controller that turns the fans on and off. You might call the company that made it (if you can get through to them) and have a discussion... See if parts are available, etc.
@@WilliamBennerJr Thank you so much. My thoughts exactly. These Vinotemp units are about 5 years old and they discontinued this Designer series. They are no help at all. They don't have any parts and they cannot even give me part numbers so I can try elsewhere. I will figure it out. Thanks again, Jeff
This was 1 of 2 videos that helped me. so perfect for me. 🎉🎉🎉 Thanks i thought i was going to have to junk this expensive dryer or pay someone else to tell me its the motor and never comeback again. A big sock was stuck in that blower fan thingy. there wss at least 3 more socks change art supplies smh smh. Now its purring like a kitty.❤
WOW a big sock! They'll try to escape in any way possible!
I noticed my bottom part of window silver molding is detaching hopefully if i fix it, it'll.stop wind noise.
Fingers crossed!
I had just cleaned lint out as well and that’s when the vibration started. Loose lint stuck in blades!! Thanks for saving me from a service call and repair!! $$$ saved!
Glad it helped!
Watched many videos over the years, and your instructions were so straightforward and right on! My issue was lint in the flywheel, so I didn't need to purchase anything, but wouldn't have had such an easy time fixing this without people like you taking the time to post videos like this. Much appreciated!! Thank you!
Glad it was of use to you!
I never leave comments but you explained everything very clearly. I was able to follow your directions and remove a stuck cloth.
WOW, that's the first time I've ever heard of a cloth. I guess it got past the lint filter.
Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for taking the time to share it!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you Conan O Brian.
Thank you! I just fixed the same issue! Great video!!
You're welcome!
Man I had a basket ball of lint I was about to go to Lowes saw 2 videos you broke it down so easy fixed it in 25 minutes just with a Shop Vacuum..saved $700+ Thank you!!!
Cool!
Man I really appreciate your video
Thanks for the kudos!
Wow. I think this video hit our problem on the nose. I think I can handle this repair. Sounds considerably easier than replacing all the rollers and the pulley.
I'm sure you can handle it. So many others have...
You can get the same sensation in some cars by rolling down just 1 window a little. It's like a pressure to a slight vacuum in your ears. My Model 3 Tesla doesn't do this, but I heard the Ys do.
It's a bit of a different feeling. The "windows down" creates a Helmholtz Resonance. The buffeting being discussed here is a compression effect, that will change frequency and amplitude, based on what the car is rolling over on the road.
@@WilliamBennerJr SCIENCE!
Excellent Beautiful Sublime inmortal The 80 Amazing Rules Simmons Forever 🥁🙏❤
Thanks so much for this video. I thought I was going crazy with the oscillating pressure I was feeling on my ears. This makes perfect sense. Thanks again!
You are so welcome!
thank you so much for your useful idea
You are most welcome
This video allowed me to fix my dryer…. It was full of lint and it was all jammed in… All I had to do was follow your instructions and clean it out. Put it back together and now it’s as quiet as the day we bought it. Thank you so much for sharing this video.
Glad it helped
This was super helpful! Got my dryer fixed in just 15 minutes!!
Great to hear!
Thank you Sir.
You are most welcome
Worked like a charm. Spot on and saved me going to some appliance repair guy! Thanks!!!!
Glad it helped
This veidao was created 5 years ago, and the problem is still present on the MY 2024.. just unbelieavable that Tesla did not offer a solution for a problem like that one!
Actually the air suspension really helps. Newer model cars are much less of a problem. Nevertheless this affects all hatchbacks where the hatch is really horizontal. For SUVs that have a hatch, but the hatch is mostly vertical, this is not an issue.
I have a ring video door bell do you have any suggestions for one of that my door swing out ward can you tell me how t make one for doors swinging out ward or make a video
I have many Ring products myself as well. Generally the Ring products are more flexible in some ways, but they also typically use screws as an attachment means.
does it basically sound like an acoustic bass tone?
So many tones are available. I can't say it's purely like an acoustic because there are several switch position, several tone controls, etc. A lot to play with actually. Maybe too much. I must say, I just leave the tone control on my Fender "wide open". May as well only have a volume control, but that's just me ;-)
Part number !?
It varies by drier, but Appliance Parts Pros dot com does have a search facility.
By any chance are you familiar with Conan O’Brien?
Yes, in my medical computer days people told me that all the time.
Thank you for taking the time to do the video. Very helpful, especially the part about using impact. In our case two of the fins in the wheel were cracked/broken creating out of balance. Thank you again!
WOW that's something!
very helpful video! Thank you. Mine was just lint buildup as well.
Glad it helped!
Like a few other viewers, my issue was lint packed in the blades after the annual vent cleaning. Your video was a tremendous help. Thanks!!!
Great to hear!
Thanks for the video, it was very helpful. Mine ended up being the lint.
Hehe, yes, it seems from the comments, a lot of lint buildup lately...
Conan O’Brian does wine fridge repairs? Wow! Man of many skills!
Outstanding tutorial. Lint was built up and laying to one side of the blower. Saved me a service call $$$!
Yes another one with lint. Must be that time of the season...
