Re: Re: HAM antenna
The "problem" with this info is it does not cover one of the bigger
threats to car electronics or how to deal with it. One of the biggest
potentail problems is a RF feedback through power leg of transceiver
into cars electrical system. None of those tips deal with that. The
way to combat that is to install a filter choke in power legs of
transceiver to block it. I have done this for many years in many
vehcle with Ham radio equipment and I have never had a problem even
with cars that actually advise against it.

As it gets a bit rancid, doesn't it also become spam?
