Hi, I don't know if this is the right bucket but I need advice from experienced RV hams. I installed a fiberglass push-up pole 31 feet, on the ladder of my 5th wheel. It is feed with an Icom AH4 tuner grounded to frame feed from an IC-706mk2g. On 40m I have terrible feedback RF getting in the mic. I put clip on needs on the coax and tuner control at both ends. The operating position is in the rear of the 5er, only about 5 feet away. What are my options to reduce the rfi. Seems to work ok on other higher bands.

Thoughts would be appreciated.
