Ain't this a kicker. I bought a Uniden PC 68 LTW Peaked & Tuned, (6w

with resistor plugs & wires. The Uniden even with the NB on still
gives me

much ignition noise for me to use, the old dog Cobra is quiet as a

Wonder why that is?

Are you wired direct to the battery?

Yes I am.

Rat shack sell a decent filter for that, some cars are much worse
than others, you may have one of those nasty fuel pumps, or something
in the alt field. Your swr is good?
