In article , Gunner says...

Im sure Im going to need a power line filter though. The radio may be
run off 12vt dc, or line, or 8 D batteries. I may simply use a DC
supply and see if that kills some of the noise from the puter.


Also follow the instructions about bonding the coax as it exits
the RV shell.

Because the metal skin is a good faraday shield as you say, it
will keep the rf noise from getting *outside* where the antenna
is. So all you need to do is make sure that the rf does not
ride along the sheild of the coax and get to the antenna. By
bonding the shield (stopping off at a bulkhead fitting) to the
skin, you prevent this.
