Default Class D FM interference

Had the fairing off to install some other items and decided to hook up my PN520 to power it up and test the FM reception with it powered. I am under the impression that powered up it should interere (if it is going to) with the reception. No loss of signal with it sitting almost atop the radio (harness was in the way).

So if my test was accurate I will begin looking to get some brackets (maybe dragonfly since they are cheaper than JM) and installing the amp in a few weeks (finally).

I've had 3 different Class D amps, and every one of them killed my FM including the SS 520 (my first amp). Weird how it does it for some but not others.

Got lucky last night and scored the JM brackets for the amp and modules for 75.00. Might be doing the amp one night this week.
