I run several GPSs in the truck when roving, specifically a Garmin GPS 182C,
a 276C and on occasion a Motorola Encore. The 182C does make some noise and
I have had to turn it off on rare occasions although I can't remember
specific frequencies. I suspect some of this has to do with where it is and
the length and type of cabling -- I have the cables run from the dash of the
truck to under the rear seat and plugged into a computer for mapping. The
cable doesn't appear to be shielded, etc.
