For those who have installed CB (children band radios) or other transmitters that are getting into your dash radio.
Electronic Goldmine has an inexpensive set of chokes that will help get the RF out of your Dash Radio. Part number #67771. Install one across the power leads at the battery of the transmitter and wrap the coax around one as near to the coax connector on the transmitting radio as you can, should be able to do a complete wrap thru the core.
This stopped my 70 watt 2 meter radio from getting into the dash radio.

Amazon offers a good selection of ferrite chokes

http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=ferrite+chokes&tag=googhydr-20&index=aps&hvadid=87243240785&hvpos=1t3&hvexid=&hv netw=g&hvrand=10379372463731613953&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=b&hvdev=c&ref=pd_sl_8sdi606qoh_b

Try hanging one or two on the power lead, and on the sensor leads.
