Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] fan replacement for usrp1?

[Mark Cetilia]

Thanks Robert,

I hadn't ever noticed it getting hot to the touch,

but I haven't tried running it w/ no fan & top on either…

Best,

Mark

Top on.  Fire up the fastest card you have (widest band signal you can process) and put your finger on the FPGA.  It is cool.

If the oscillator in the USRP1 were most stable and accurate,  it might make some sense but it just doesn't in my opinion make sense so I disconnected them all in my USRP 1's.

Ah good, glad to hear it's not just me…

Do you run it with the top on or leave it open?

Cheers,

Mark

Yes I have.  I disconnected it.  In my opinion, it is overkill for anything going on in a USRP1.

YMMV,

wondering if anybody out there has replaced their usrp1 fan with something a bit quieter?
i find myself listening to its incessant whine many hours a day, and it's starting to make me a little crazy—
especially when i am trying to listen to subtle details… anybody have a suggestion for a decent replacement?

cheers,
