As seen in this thread, I have an IC-2730a installed in my 2018 F-250. In the past two weeks, I've started receiving a lot of static/RFI on two, specific repeater pairs (146.94 and 146.90) I have programmed into the radio. I've tried adjusting the squelch, but still have interference with the squelch fully closed. Using other radios, I haven't heard the same static/RFI on the same frequencies, so I doubt it's the repeaters.
I'm not sure what has changed. The antenna and power connections haven't changed since the radio was installed and everything has worked fine until recently. I did take the remote head off or security while parked in a public area, but I've done that since the radio was installed. The only other electrical change is finally hardwiring my dashcam. Though, I don't remember this problem starting right after I ran the power. Other than that, there is no other new equipment on the truck itself.
The only thing unusual has been our above-average rainfall, but the weather hasn't been a factor in the past. Plus, I would expect drier weather to cause the problem, not wet weather.
I probably won't have time to dig into finding the source until this weekend, but I'm posting this mostly to share my thinking and to see if anyone has suggestions.
