Noise in Ford F-150
 

Anybody have any ideas to lower noise in my FT-857 mounted in my F-150
pickup? S7-S9 noise (engine running, with NB ON) on 17M (Only band I've
tried on HF yet). Antenna is an Outbacker mounted on a mount I welded up
for my receiver hitch and puts the base of the antenna at about roof level.
Quiet as a mouse when truck is shut off. Go figure...hard to be "mobile"
with the engine off ;)
