  • Page 3: Ignition Noise Interference

    IGNITION NOISE INTERFERENCE Use of a mobile receiver at low signal levels is normally limited by the presence of electrical noise. The primary source of noise in automobile installation is from the generator and ignition system in the vehicle. Under most operating conditions, when signal level is adequate, the background noise does not present a serious problem.
