Welp, Those of you not familiar, the ZJ is a rolling electronics rack.
I have one small nagging issue. I relocated all electronics (except the siren module) to a "box" that is in the spare tire location. The Ham radio is installed there with the antenna tuner (HF only) and the sub amp. They are spaced about as good as it gets.. .which isn't much. The sub amp and the tuner are right beside each other, but the HAM radio (100w - HF, 50w - VHF, 35w - UHF) is at the other end and above the others since it is the primary source of the RF.
When the stereo is up, I get some RF noise through the sub amp into the sub. A low freq buzzing when in the VHF bands running the max, 50 watts. No probs so far in UHF. When I ran the radio through the tuner on 6 meter (50 mhz), the noise through the sub was horrible and I could even hear my voice.
Asside from pulling the sub amp out of there, is there another option here? All units are chassis grounded also... and not to the same point.
I know, I know... a HAM question.... :rolleyes: :D
