Speaking as a ham radio operator, I find operating conditions are much better after sundown. Band conditions are much more conducive to distance operating and are much quieter at that time.

Specifically, customers that are SWL, AM or amateur radio operators need RF quiet time during the day while operating or listening. All the controller I have installed make some noise. The Outback MX60 in my RV decimates every 40 kHz or so with broadband noise from 160 meters and up. Does anyone know how the Xantrex SW, Tristar MPPT or Apollo do with RFI?
