Euro Steiner update

Euro Steiner update

2007-08-08 by sasami@hotkey.net.au

Further builds have discovered a problem when running the Euro version of
the Steiner design on 12 volts. If you wish to run on 12 volts and find the
module hard or impossible to set up due to uncontrollable resonance, short
out every third diode in the diode divider chain. It will still work on 15
volts with these diodes shorted out.

Hi Ken,

Is this also valid for the non-Euro version of the Steiner filter? I
ordered one from you a few days ago and want to know if I should apply
the same patch (I also use 12V).

Greetings

No, only the Euro version is affected. It has twice as many diodes in it as
the non-euro version, thus the problem.
