First of all,your radio should not even be on when you plug in your coax.second , what time of day is it? Third ,it could be bad coax. the coax you need should be 95% shielded or better and the dielectric should be and the plastic outer cover marked with type " IIA" this coax has a life time of 20 years. It is the best you can get.Is your radio a mobil or a base? A base could be picking up flouresent light energy and your car radio could also .If your car radio is hooked up to a cigarette lighter plug you can pick up extra noise that way.Try going directly to the fuse panel. It could be just a minor adjustment to the RF gain section or the Squelch section.You will need a tech.

35,000 cfm = ?pounds trust

There is no equivilancy between the two...pounds of thrust would be 'foot pounds of torque' and cfm is the amount of air delivery is passing a specific sized opening in cubic feet per minute.

If you are looking at how much pressure is in for instance a residential air conditioning system, they are typically designed for .5"w.c. total system static. Meaning the pressure in the supply air duct plus the negative static added together cannot exceed .5" of water column. Approximately 28" w.c. per pound of pressure and we don't want any more than 1/2 of one inch water columm....

Now if you're talking about turbo-chargers....thats a different story and I haven't a clue.

NOT RECEVING OR TRANSMITING

Can you see the s-mete if it has one moving up and down on any channel? Do you hear any audio at all? could be a couple of things. Bad mic switch or mic cable, bad antenna or coax, bad audio amp. To check the audio amp plug in a speaker to the PA jack, put the PA switch on PA then press the mic to talk. If it works the audio is fine the mic is good and the mic cable is good. Noiw plug the speaker into the speaker jack, do you hear anything? If not then your antenna or coax has a problem, fix or replace antenna or coax.

Panasonic 13" TV VCR Combo Unit White PV-C1332W put tape in and plays sound but just static shows on all movies?

You need to clean the video head. With these types of sets it's best to use a tape cleaning cassette. I should get a Scotch Head Cleaner Plus tape currently on sale on Amazon for around 4 pounds.

How to i hook-up a directv dvr plus to two tv's?

plug one tv using coax (screw in cable). plug the other using composite video cables( yellow, red, white). It will be easy to connect the tv that's the farthest with coax, its cheaper to purchase 50ft of coax vs 50ft of composite video.

Static restricting RF signal while rolling down the road but stops when i apply the brake or when i slow down to stop or when I am sitting still. I drive a truck for a living which is an international,...

Are you using the factory coax. A lot of Internationals have a terrible setup from the factory, they run the coax into a junction box and run your cb coax and your fm radio out of it. You could be getting bad rf feedback through from the FM radio. I would next try a regular antenna mounting bracket setup with a good stranded center coax with at least a 95% braided shielding. You have been on the right track, most problems like this is a process of elimination. If this doesn't fix the problem, or you already have this setup, please reply on here or email me at:

I would be more than happy to assist you with your problem.
