    Uhf interferance if connect another accessory?

    I installed the drivedock today for the sat phone.


    I haven't connected power yet but as usual I'm looking for a quick solution. Happy to run power direct to battery but just thought I would ask first.

    The drivedock power has a red, black and yellow cords.

    Direct power, earth and accessory power. The device will know when power is cut from yellow of course and run for 20 minutes then shut main power off.

    Anyways, as per pic below...

    Am I able to tap into the UHF power and earth and then tap into the stereo or ciggy plug for the yellow or will this cause interference on the UHF speaker?

    Stop being lazy AB and do the job properly?

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    When I was a kid at school all the kids had to prove they were capable of using a pen before they got their pen licence.
    As adults I think the same rules should exist with tools, we should have to earn our tool licences and clearly AB you are not ready for yours.

    Not hard Andy what you want to do.. as I said just make sure you have relays and switches and it will be done.

    I would be wiring it to the AUX battery via a suitable fuse as suggested , leave your start battery for that, just starting.

    Don't need a flat battery out in the Simmo
    Check condition of both batteries if any are older than 3years I'd be looking at swapping it for a new one.
    You don't need any dramas out the middle of no where
