Default Noise Question

I have a 2015 Forest River Wildwood 33ft., I have the Tarhell mount welded to the frame coming out the rear so that the antenna is about 2ft from the camper as it is aluminum sided. The problem is that when the antenna is tuned for resonance, there is a very loud noise that changes in pitch, it overwhelms the signals so that you can barely hear anyone unless they have a large signal, it does this on most bands and louder on 40/75m. I thinking the noise coming from the inverter??? Suggestions. BTW...the rig is Yaesu FT-857d.
