    Did you tune it you can get a tuner at any big truck stop on your way out west. Fly J and TA have them. Adjust the squelch. You could be getting some interfaces from the way you routed you cable. Are you running a radar detector or large stereo system?

    I just put in for vacation time at work. I've got June 24 through July 4th off. I've decided I'm doing two days of sleep followed by four days of house/yard followed by 3 days of vehicles, the usual July 3rd family cookout thing and then a final day of sleep.

    I'm excited.

    I've played around with the squelch..I don't have a large stereo system or radar. I went power straight to the battery and ground straight to the chassis

    Not the best spot for ground plane. I had a 5' firestik on my first gen right by the tailgate. It would receive from miles away, but tx was junk. Pretty easy to tune it with swr meter .

    That's a good deal. I'm in maniac mode now and it will get even crazier after the 4th. We're building a chemical plant to test new technology and we need to start running experiments right after the 4th.

    I think I'm good for now. Right now I'm trying to get a handle on all the plantings. I despise my lawn tractor and it's got a leaky fuel line I have to fix anyways, so I've been using my push mower.

    You didn't loop your antenna cable anywhere did you? Looping cable is a big no no!
