EE Dept. Lines: 10 Why chirping noises? The mini-Rack C has a very simple power supply just sufficient to support a majority of Zorro-I type boards without drawing power from the Amiga. When any device accesses the address lines of the Amiga all power sources will experience brief Mhz type power surges as digital gates switch on and off. A more expensive power supply wont reflect these surges too much as noise. As to why Mhz type surges produces audible Khz type sounds you'd have to refer to Mr. Fourier Series and Transform for the accurate answer. Wilson Cheung
