therefore, no ignition system noise. This makes it much easier to operate

That's generally true, Larry.

But many modern diesel engines use electronically-controlled fuel injectors.
The control circuits to these injectors can be a source of electrical noise.
But said noise can be fixed.


Ooops, almost forgot to mention -- if you're a lazy, whining,
Welfare-sycophant,
No-coder crybaby with your hand out waiting for code-free HF privileges, you
won't be
able to take advantage of a diesel engine powered HF mobile station!

Whew! Had to slip that in so that Lennie wouldn't be disappointed!
