Al, I hate to be the bringer of bad tidings, but all new vehicles have so many computers in them that are susecptible to RFI/EMI, hardly anyone I know puts mobile rigs in them any more. You were luck
Hi all, A local 440 machine here has been plagued with a "popcorn-like" noise on the input with all but the strongest input signals. It's got everyone baffled. The clues so far: 1. The noise is less
Just found out that _two_ other 440 machines on the same site are being plagued the same way. -Lin/KJ6EF _______________________________________________ RFI mailing list RFI@contesting.com http://lis
Yes, the machine does have PL...and the tone is the reset courtesy tone. ...and I don't think it's just our machine, as two of the other 440 machines affected are owned by other clubs/individuals, on
It was the repeater transmitter; sorry I wasn't more clear. We've dug up a fellow with an Analyzer, and are "going up the mountain", it looks like. Will recommend a DF antenna. -Lin/KJ6EF ___________
All I know is that it's USAF, it rotates, and it's mostly responsible for ATC. Oh, and it's more like 46 miles...I checked the distance on Google. I really doubt it's this... Added mystery clue: We j
Yeah, All that needs to happen is for someone not to be able to reach the doctor due to cell jamming, the patient drops dead, and now we have a "Wrongful Death" suit against the jammer. I hate these

I don't know a great deal about static induced directly by rain hitting HV lines, but here in dusty, sooty, gritty, 10-inches-of-rain-or-less-per-year San Diego County, I do know that the first rain
I live in San Diego, and we have these LED sigs all over the place; I listen to AM a lot, and have detected no problems...and I put on 25,000 miles in a year in this environment, too, at all hours of

....and I love the last paragraph: "....used by ham radio operators and others." Uh, you mean, like, the military and other government agencies, some of them mission and life-critical? Gee, he forgot
Jim, Avoid Mazda; I have had two, had RFI issues, and Mazda was one of the few makers who refused to cooperate with an ARRL request for information in a fairly recent study of the mobile RFI problem.
Roger, I agree with Mike. A friend had a similar problem, and tried to employ an electric fence. He eventually had to run the voltage up to 400 VDC to get through the insulative properties of the fur
Both proved RF Racket-Makers here; the nVisions made a howl on BCB, 160 and 80 that radiated for 30 feet. "Lights of America" from Home Depot have proved cheap and unreliable in all forms, types and
Must depend on where you live. Here in Carlsbad, CA, the PD's on people like this like stink on a skunk, day or night. In San Diego, the SDPD has a special detail for these idiots; three cites and th
