My recall on noise is about the same Lil'Yeshua. Depending maybe on the radio I used, noise was a fact of life sometimes, and I never had the thought that I could control it like ghutch is suggesting. Then again...I never bonded anything on my mobiles either.

 

I've heard plenty of similar stories and guys making claims about all sorts of things on CB and on the Internet, while others have said they tried bonding and it made little to no difference in their case.

 

This is a bit different than a mobile setup for sure, but I've tried many grounding ideas at home on the base in the early years of the 90's, and I never was able to detect one iota of positive effects as a result of such efforts. So, I'm a bit skeptical of noise and static remedies that sorta' sound like fish stories. The idea does however sound plausible, and that makes for good conversation sometimes. However, this also makes the idea very hard to prove either way.
