Radio frequency interference
Types of noise
Engine noise and electrical accessories often cause RF interference.
Noise interference can be:
• induced into and carried along the cables to the transceiver
• radiated from the noise source and picked up at the antenna
Noise from the ignition system
The ignition system of a petrol motor vehicle is often a major noise source.
High-voltage wiring
All high-voltage wiring from the ignition coil to the spark plugs should be:
• as short as possible
•clean
• as close to the engine block as possible
• of a suppressed type
