[Mobile-Portable] Vehicles and EMI

[D C Macdonald]

I have one problem in my installation of IC-706 Mk II,
High Sierra HS-1500 (screwdriver) antenna on left
end of rear bumper.  On 75m, I get a fault light on
the Anti-Lock Braking System.  It won't go out until
the ignition is cycled back to off.  It doesn't seem
to affect braking, though.

This is the only problem I've noticed.

I'm running a TS-480HX (200 watts) in my 2004 Silverado pickup.  I can be
operating HF at full power with the BOSE sound system turned on and there's
no problem.  The antenna is a screwdriver mounted on the driver's side at
the rear bumper.  There are no disclaimers that I'm aware of.
