The transceiver should be serviced only by a qualified radio technician. If you still have problems, take your transceiver to a local RadioShack store for assistance.
NOISE REDUCTION
Because your transceiver is exceptionally quiet, any noise you hear is probably from an external source in your vehicle such as your vehicle’s alternator, radio, or spark plugs.
To solve the problem, you must go to the noise's source. You can determine the noise's source by turning off the engine and operating the transceiver with your vehicle's ignition set to ACC. If the noise decreases, the problem is in your vehicle’s ignition or electrical system.
Here are a few hints to help you reduce or eliminate such noise:
•Make all transceiver power and antenna wires as short as possible.
•Route the power wires away from the antenna wires.
