Hi Neal,

Welcome to ORR. I've not been on the forum in awhile so afraid I'll get scolded by some of my long time friends here.

I operate mainly 40 and 80 meters. In most of the past RV's we have had, I've experienced a lot of noise on 75/80 meters. As someone else was saying, it's not always the RV's PS/Charger. I found on one occasion that the surround sound system that came in the 5th wheel was the culprit. I've never put an HF rig in our motor home. I plan to do that soon. I bought a Kenwood TS480SAT and need to get it in place. I'm anxious to see what the noise level will be like. The motor home has 2 deep cycle 6 volt batteries in it, and my plans are to connect direct to them.

Glad you found the ORR Forum Neal. Lot of good guys on here with plenty of knowledge. Happy New Year.
