Might want to try 6-10 snap on ferrite chokes at the antenna feedpoint. Use ones that fit snugly around the coax or they won't work correctly. There are a couple of eBay sellers that have good ones that do work. These are the ones I have and have used on a mobile install and they did work! Seller on EBay is henryradio. If you need them for larger coax just make sure they are the right mix for the frequency's being used. The ones I posted were ised on lmr240 at the feedpoint of a homemade dipole. Think I used about 12 of them total. Did the same exact thing on my mobile setup. Used 12 of the ones shown below. They worked well in that install as well. They also work well for wrapping around speaker and power wires. And also for mic cables. The smaller round ones sometimes are easier to work with on mic cables though. Ones like this work well for mic cables. It's attached below the mic itself.
