None to my knowledge , If you are getting noise just sitting with the car off that is , Are you near a power plant or high voltage lines?

Ok Thank you 307. I thought I would ask. It's nothing real major. The radio talks all over the
place. Best radio I have ever bought. But I am not near any high voltage lines unless I am getting from an other source. But any way thank you for the response. Keep up the good work. Len

Len,
Have worked on only two of the 2950DX radio but both of them had a very hot recieve you could turn the gain down 50% and still hear all the stations and on my signal generator you would get a strong signal at -110DB the lowest level. To check it your self get a coax switch and a lighter plug and install it in your car and compare it to your old radio and check it yourself.
