Johan, at what frequency did you measure. I have measured a significant C (up to some nF) in parallel to R at the input of some soundcards. 73, Rik ON7YD - OR7T ______________________________________
Rik, in parallel to R at the input of some soundcards. I can confirm this. I've digged out a VNA plot (starting at 5kHz) of my onboard soundcard. You can see that at 10kHz Z is around 3kOhm, R 2,5kOh
Hi Ken, I've been told that it varies from board to board and is between 1K and 10K. Wish I had a better answer for you. 73, J.B., VE3EAR LowFER Beacon "EAR" 188.830 kHz. QRSS30 EN93dr
Hi LF, very interesting info. However, often the line input of a sound card is used to connect a pre-amp (rather than the mic input which is more prone to overload). Am I wrong? Best regards Daniele
