    Ok, so here is what I have now. A standard 16g 3 pin radio connector lead with a fuse at the radio on the positive wire. I solder connected this to 12g wire and ran the positive wire to the positive side of the fuse box under the hood where power feeds into the box. The negative wire is run to where the battery has a small wire grounding to the core support.

    All my radios so far have picked up a good amount of noise from the vehicle. I have not installed any bonding straps anywhere. The noise picked up was constant and did not change with engine rpm. Another Note- My alternator may be going out. Lately and randomly I will get low voltage warnings, mostly early am on cold mornings. It only happens for a few moments and "Bobs You Uncle" it stops and no issue until the next cold morning. I have checked and cleaned all connections that I can easily get to, battery terminals etc.…


    So, a couple of questions 1) The Ferrite Choke goes on just the positive wire or around both +/-? 2) The noise filters come in different amperages. So just go with the larger Amp unit? 3) Where will this go in line? 4) If Iinstall an amp in the vehicle should I add these items to its circuit?


    I have way too many questions about this to go on and on about.

    MERRY CHRISTMAS
