Re: noise in VHF MARINE RAIDO
I have found that many boats will emit interference with VHF frequencies. Weather it be from the depth finder, trolling motor, or other device.<br /><br />I pretty much depends on the radio and the fish finder, as My different radio's will react differently with different boats close by. <br /><br />I think it just has to do with the quality of the receivers circuitry, and sensitivity, or selectivity.<br /><br />Try omitting that frequency that acts up from your scanned channels.<br /><br />Turn up the radio squelch.<br /><br />But what you might find best is a different radio, perhaps with better selectivity in it's specifications.<br /><br />Heck,....<br /> I recently bought a Humminbird VHF handheld for $69 new, and it works quite well out on the water. But try it at home and with all the different interference sources around the house there's only a couple of channels left it will scan without making a bunch of noise.
