    What have YOU done to eliminate RFI in your mobile?

    Funny thing about the antenna noise. My car got quite when the antenna was disconnected. Did the torrid and everything else to no avail. Finally tried the filter on the power and was quiet. Started removing coils. Was the feed all along. One in a million

    I run a grant and a 667 base and my kid has my old 29 with no driver feeding a sweet 16. I think the amp makes the set up.

    Locals on 38 LSB as home channel. Help!

    Not that I would ever actively discourage people from a channel, but if someone caused enough grief to encourage them to switch to a different freq, it may be better for all concerned. Wanna borrow a nasty c-band amp and a noise toy ?

    My ford,,,,, toroid coils on the fuel pump wires, ferrite beads on the coil on plugs, ferrite plugs on the cooling fans and using the battery as a power source. Now it is almost as quiet as my chevy but I trust my Ford.

    Magnum S9 or S45 ?

    Thanks for all the replies. Think I will go for the S9 as I have a 2950 and a 148 for SSB. Next questions, where to buy the S9? I have read the S9 is already aligned, so do I really need to pay anyone to turn up the modulation ?

    148s still talk

    I usually run my export radios. Jumped in my old pick-up today just because and went on the 50 mile commute to work. Heard a couple locals and one switched out his galaxy 29 to a 949 with a d104/m6 mic. Cut in and asked him what he had the mic set on and radio, as it sounded clean, not...

    Magnum S9 or S45 ?

    I mainly run AM but hit SSB when skip is running. I am looking for a mobile unit and have a few boxes ( straight 4,8 and a 4x12) so the amp is not a decider. Which radio do you prefer and why ?
