using a mobile mag mount in Living room....
Well.....this isn't my usual 2m set-up,BUT it is an extra set-up
for the commute. I use the home/base set up in my living room at times for convience. I have been using a 2m hustler 5/8 wave,mag mount on my radiator cover with five watts to reach a local repeater. I can reach this repeater with my handie-talkie. For some UNKNOWN reason this mobile radio set up has been having a "squeal" on TRANSMIT. I can't figure out WHAT is causing this noise! It's starting to drive me crazy. Handie-talkie......no problems. My 2m shack radio...with an outdoor antenna,no problem. The SWR 's are fine. I've tried turning off and on the computor or the cable TV to see if those were the sources....no luck. I've moved the antenna around to different places on the rad. cover...?? Tried ferrite on the power leads.....used a battery,it dimished a little bit with the battery,but it is STILL THERE!!!!!! Am I doomed to either the Handie-talkie OR go uyp stairs to the shack to use the 2m's??? Sometimes I find a "signal"?,on the recieve meter,a small one, that CAN'T be squalched out either! darn crazy V-8000 I'm picking up something somewhere. It's ONLY on transmit. damn....I have to find out "WHY" maybe my radio needs a ground?........antenna AND RADIO. I feel lost with this one. paladin (feelin' old) |
