[RFI] toyota Rav4 Hybrid

[Roger (K8RI)]

My wife has one of the early Prius hybrids and no problems so far. No 
noise on VHF, or UHF. I've never operated HF from it, But I've never 
heard it in the driveway, in the garage under the antennas.In the garage 
it would have been about 75 feet from the one 75/40 center fed, half 
wave sloper and 100to 120  feet from the tribander.
