Hi Everyone,

I have been busy over the weekend and have just posted two new nine 
minute podcast audio files (mp3 format). The first is a technical 
discussion describing how to help determine immunity to nearby 
wireless devices with a simple test. It is based on my recent 
Technical Tidbit at http://emcesd.com/tt2006/tt020106.htm .

The second is an interview/discussion on trends in undergraduate EE 
programs and the one at the University of California at Santa Barbara 
in particular. If you what to see where EE programs are headed or know 
of someone contemplating entering an undergraduate EE program, you 
will find this podcast interesting.

The podcasts are located at http://emcesd-p.com/podcast and are 
summarized as follows:

# February 8, 2006, Construction of a Simple Antenna for Wireless 
Troubleshooting (~2.2 MB, 9 min, 36 sec)

        This podcast is a discussion of the February 2006 Technical Tidbit at 
http://emcesd.com titled "Construction of a Coaxial Antenna for 
Troubleshooting." A simple test is described to help determine if a 
piece of equipment may be affected by a nearby wireless device such as 
a mobile phone.


# February 7, 2006, Trends in undergraduate Electrical Engineering 
programs and other topics from the University of California Santa 
Barbara Electrical and Computer Engineering, ECE, department (~2.3 MB, 
9 min, 53 sec)

        # Interviews with faculty/staff of the ECE department

        * Steve Long, Professor in the ECE department
        * Leslie Edwards, Manager of the Technology Management Program

My new Pro-audio equipment has arrived and starting with the February 
8th podcast you will notice better sound quality.

Doug
