have seen brake failure with as little as 60 watts on VHF-hi (a Ford).
Really? That's whacked. How the hell did you see it?
Happened when I was working at a 2-way shop in Oregon. Since the auto
makers dumped the responsibility of RF compatibility onto the radio
makers, the procedure (as described in the manuals) for installing a
commercial radio into -any- vehicle requires that it be driven and
keyed up with the brakes applied. One failed the test.
Was there fluid in the master cylinder on that one? In other words, could
it have been the brakes were bad to begin with? How many were tested?
