Kw has always been pretty bad to me, they generate lot's of static.

It take lot's of work to build decent set up with Kw, i remember years ago i had a FLD120 that truck was awesome radio wise!

Also back then trucks were made of metal now it's all plastic fiber glass and all kind of composite materials + tons of electronics that doesn't help.

 

Freightliner Cascadia.

The radio was never the problem, never turning the inverter on till I actually needed was the issue. And what are the odds I'm using the inverter and radio at the same time? Slim to nil that's when. Well, I was using it to keep the phone charged, because the cigarette lighter as a charger was introducing noise as well. Well, is easier to unplug from the lighter while driving than stop to turn off the inverter.

 

I was. This has been the norm, until my post in this thread, turning off the inverter. Thanks to you for starting this thread I've reduced a big noise maker. So like the article said, there's noise and then there is NOISE. The inverter noise should have never been in there. I expect to find now, people will some better at distance.

 

Top is before inverter is turned off.
Both pictures squelch and gain are wide open.

Where is your needle with squelch and gain wide open?

 

You should make another video when you hear a guy with a stock radio 30 miles away and he sounds loud and clear and he's not moving your needle.

 

Now that's what i want for my radio!!!
