    Harris XG-100p Intermod/Interference from Display!

    I have a strange noise that is only affecting 1 conventional analog frequency in VHF range. The odd part about it, it is common to any location, so Im assuming internal radio noise. Placing 3 fingers over the display will cause it disappear. Is not present in TX. Ive only expreienced this in the...

    Interference

    I am receiving interference on a one-way listen-only analog frequency on a BTech DMR-6X2 Pro while sitting at my desk. It makes squelching noises intermittently and then just stops. This happens nowhere else so far. Are there settings I can change to be able to sit on the channel without...

    Hearing digital on FRS 1 in Toronto

    Over the last few years, I've been hearing digital mode on FRS in Southern Ontario. Specifically, FRS 1 when in Toronto/Mississauga. It seems to always hog the channel. What might this be and is it even legal for someone to do this? Here is what's going on: https://files.catbox.moe/tlamrz.mp4

    Help with RFI coming from my PC please!

    I've been getting a low, pulsing hum on certain stations (happens a lot around 4840 and the surrounding areas). I was pulling my hair out, but I think I figured it out. It's not interference from my home electrical system or various electronics: it's my dang PC! I connected my SDR (HF+...

    Wouxun Wouxun KG-UV9D+ interference while scanning

    Hello all, I've got a KG-UV9D+, and am noticing that while scanning on both channels, it will sometimes run into what I can only reference as a "collision". I've narrowed down a specific example to show what I'm finding. Channel A is on 436.76500 MHz Channel B is on 406.02500 MHz Channel A...

    Wouxun Wouxun UV-9D Mate Radio is picking up lots of interference

    I just bought the Wouxun UV-9D Mate from BuyTwoWayRadios. It is a great radio, but it has some issues I noticed immediately. I have other Amateur Radios on 2 meter and 70cm and this is the only radio that breaks squelch with CTCSS Tone Squelch Set on several frequencies with data sounds. It...

    Can anyone identify this interference sound?

    For years I've been getting major interference on the lower VHF band around my home indoors and outdoors and around a few house vicinity on my block. Most of the time it sounds like an "open carrier" on hundreds of frequencies in the lower VHF band, however within the last few months I now hear...

    RF Interference and Hybrid Vehicles

    Hey All, Ed (WRCQ448 on GMRS here) I have a really dumb question. I have a close friend (ham op) who is having a big issue with his vehicle pretty much being a faraday cage. It’s a Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid. When it switches to hybrid mode pretty much any radio signal that’s not AM/FM/HD cuts...

    Interference with MotoTrbo on MTR3000 VHF

    I have exceeded my knowledge level. My FD runs a VHF MTR3000 in Trbo mode and we are having problems. We changed to Trbo then soon after replaced heliax and antenna due to water tower sandblast an repaint and a 25+ year old antenna. We cover a city of 4 Sq miles and have been having...

    Open Carrier Med-10 for over a week now.

    Open carrier on Med-10 for over a week now 462.9750 with a PL of 146.2. I'm posting this here cause I live in Bergen County, however it could be originating from NY or CT. A check of the database shows no user with that PL. Any Ideas?

    If this thread better belongs somewhere better, moderators feel free- I'm listening to a local business on one my of my Motorola P25 handhelds but I've cross tested this frequency on a few of my other radios that include Kenwood and the same thing happens where, ever so often, an interference...

    RF Noise

    I recently put a 29 LX in my truck as well as a mag mount Wilson 1000. With the truck not running, there is hardly any static even with the RF gain cranked up. But with the truck running, the only thing I hear is a popping or cracking sound that's relative to engine rpm. I disconnected the...

    Sweeping Sound on Scanner Listening to Local Police Dispatch

    I've been monitoring my local police dispatch frequency for my city which is obviously on a repeater. Each time someone talks, whether it be a dispatcher on a base station or a police officer on their mobile/handheld, there is this constant "sweeping" like sound. Like the sound a broom would...

    Frustrating mid VHF interference

    What's possible with this setup? How/when to improve?

    I've just started exploring radio, and I'm totally captivated by how it works and what you can do with it. Unfortunately, I'm so new, I don't know if my setup is working well - maybe I'm doing something stupid like using the wrong antenna and don't know it - so I'm asking for some general...
