Good advice on all counts.
Mobile installations are particularly problematic, because the
body/chassis is used as a counterpoise for our antennas, bonding of body
and chassis is often flaky (or non-existent, thanks to paint) and the
routing and design of interconnecting cables for vehicle systems pay
little of any attention to EMC.

I choke everything. If it's a wire, and it's near the antenna, it's a
potential radiator.
In fact, on my mobile installation, I had worse RFI/EMC problems with
the 12V control wires to the tuner and the remote head cable for the
radio than with the coax.
