Lots of noise comes thru. I've used mine that way a couple of times when the real mobile failed. A ClearSpeech speaker helps to get rid of most of the noise. It also does not have a strong noise blanker circuit, reduces but does not eliminate ignition noise. Great little toy. Needs the external antenna for decent reception in car. Don't know if it can be tweaked in any way. My Service tech wouldn't touch it.
It is good for what it is and gives better performance than some of the small mobiles. I like it in spite of its limitations.
I also got the Handsfree kit for it from Ratshack, but noise is a problem with the earpiece. It takes a fine adjustment of the squelch and volume to be able to understand without going deaf from noise.
