[ICOM] IC-706 Mobile Noise Question

Not knowing anything about this radio or problem. The first thing I would
try is a choke core on the control cable.
At one end or the other, maybe both. Sounds like noise generated by the
radio is getting back into the antenna.

Subject: [ICOM] IC-706 Mobile Noise Question



I've an original IC-706 which I sometimes use with the remote mounting

kit in the van.  I've noticed that when I turn the tuning control or

any other knob I hear a static as if it was a noisy pot.  This noise

does not happen when the remote cord is not used.

This noise is loudest on those bands for which I have a resonant antenna.

I'd be grateful for any help.

Be Well,

Tim
