I have had my TH-F7E for a long while and used it as a handheld with it's original antenna.

The other day I decided to give it a try when mobile using a small 1 meter whip magnetically attached to the roof of the car. I tuned it into a repeater on 2m, clear 5/9 signal then all of a sudden a PMR signal completely drowns out the repeater. It happens as often as every minute on some of the channels on 2m wherever I drive.

70cm doesn't seem to suffer from this problem. It's only when I use 2m.

Doe's anyone have the same problem?
Is there a simple way of fixing that or would it be easier just to fit a band pass filter between the RF output of the handheld and the antenna?

Hello.

For all that the radio does it works quite well.
The trouble is in front end filtering, there is none.
