Thank you guys, I appreciate all your help. Yeah I may do that Larry and see if there is a difference. I tried the scanner in the car again today, and I think (obviously I am not used to scanners and I do not even have a CB radio installed in my car) the "interferences" I was getting is the fact that I am MOVING and not staying, I mean, when you go through a city, and move fast, I am just guessing, it can't be the same reception as when you are still at a specific spot. For instance, I noticed today, when I am parked, the reception is great, even with the car on. I gotta tell you, the sound is very clear when still, really. If I move fast the signals get weaker, but then again, I think it is normal, using a rubber duck and not an external antenna in the car. I am also going to try a CB antenna like gmclam said, just out of curiousity.
About the computer noise, I was able to listen to everything next to the computer, no noise whatsoever, so maybe it is something else around. I know sometimes some repeaters give me noise at different spots in the house.
Either way, Larry, yeah I can still return it, I have a couple of days to make sure it is defective, but let me tell you, for $80(including shipping), looking like new out of the box, and all the features of the radio, I do not know if it is worth it sending it back, honestly. I bought it online, so the shipping alone would make 1 quarter of what the radio cost. However, I am testing it really hard now, and I keep it on for longer periods of time. I am loving it, this thing is great, I wish I had started earlier in the world of scanning and radios in general.
Again, thank you guys, I am going to order an all band discone antenna today, RG6 (100ft), and the mounting bracket and mast. It is going to be tall, since I am at a 2 story house (basically my roof is the tallest in the neighborhood). I am having trouble with finding a mast a bit thinner than 1 1/2 "...but I guess I will find it. You guys recommend aluminum or fiberglass?
