    Rf and Oil pressure gauge

    i will agree with MUDFOOT , start at the oil pressure sensor, its behind the intake manifold at the back of the engine on that vehicle, wrap the sensor and the harness as far as you can go with some type of shielding tape, pretty sure 3m makes some,

    New Palomar Ceramic Microphone

    I didn't think it sounded that great at all,, maybe it was his radio or the way he was recording it,,, it sounded way "LISSPY" if that's how to explain it,, the 2018 sounded good IF he would have turned the ECHO OFF,,, and the JM2 sounded the best if he would have had a little more modulation...

    what meter?? did you try it with another radio, does the radio meter also show that the radio is staying "keyed"/dead key on ssb, or does the radio meter bounce like it should on ssb

    Whats the verdict on the Magnum 1?

    I will admit the guy here does sound good, and I don't think you will be disappointed at all with the radio, but for the same $300 price range you can get a nice used hf radio, I just got a perfect working kenwood ts50 for $300 shipped, and I see alinco dx-70's for the same used price at...

    Whats the verdict on the Magnum 1?

    the guy here had a couple different mics wired for his and the factory mic sounded best on all modes,, pretty sure the factory mic is a Electret condenser microphone
