One of our equipments malfuntions when a walkie talkie handset is brought near it. Can one of you please write about walkie talkie signal ( i.e. carrier frequency, type of modulation, depth etc.). Is this a typical radiated susceptibility problem?
We may have to add filter capacitor for bypassing this frequency. How to findout the self-resonance frequency of the capacitor? I use a Rf signal generator "SynthNV" and "RF explorer" spectrum analyzer.
What kind of walkie-talkie? CB? FRS? Ham? MURS? Commercial? Police? Kid's toy? Each of these work in different bands, and some services have multiple bands assigned.
They might have almost any frequency or type of modulation. Most likely it'll be somewhere between 27 MHz and 1000 MHz, though there are possible frequencies outside this range. AM is more common below 30MHz, while FM is more common above. Various digital schemes are also possible.
If the walkie-talkie has an FCC Id somewhere on its data plate, look up that ID on the fcc.gov site, and you may get more information. Or you might want to look at its output with that spectrum analyzer.
