Subject: RE: marine radio antenna




Location: Green Bay, WI		It sounds like an Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) issue. Check this out for starters:

I wonder if the cables for your VHF are shielded or not? Is it a high-quality unit?


I remember a bit about this from my HAM radio days and it sounds to me like you might need a band-pass filter. These basically allow the desired frequencies of the VHF radio to pass, but not those outside of the desired range (band). Here is some more reading:

Maybe someone else will chime in with some thoughts, as I am not as well-versed in this stuff as I once was. But I think it's a good place to start. You might also go the Hull Truth forum and search the forum archives. That's a great source of information.

Good luck!
