Ok, I get the message. Another thing: I seem to remember I have read something 
about the Yaesu cable I am using is not 100 % compatible and should be fixed, 
but I can't remember where I read it or how it should be fixed.


Ulf,

I am not currently a Flex user. Was in the past but this is kind of a general - 
non-flex issue.

I am assuming from what you said that your shack is in the barn.

If this is the case remember that the counterpoise - the metal roof on the barn 
- is the other half of a 1/2 wave dipole.
Being such it will be hot with RF while transmitting. So you are essentially 
sitting right underneath an RF source.

Not good.

All I can suggest is better shielded mike cable and ferrite  chokes on the mike 
cable and probably all other cables as well.

Some more info.

Antenna is Butternut HF6V mounted on the barn using the metal roof as a 
counterpoise.
Mic is Heil HM-5
I have a ground strap from my FLEX to the PSU on my computer and also ground to 
a copper plate buried outside the barn. The grounding system in Norway is very 
bad.

You will need to describe more of your setup.  Antennas, grounds, type of mics, 
etc.

If you have a ground on the radio, try removing it and see if it clears up.

RFI issues require a lot of trial and error testing.  It is not a fault of the 
radio unfortunately.

I have had my FLEX-5000A for a couple of months now, and I love it. Get great 
reports on audio on all bands, (haven't tested 6 meter yet, since I don't have 
an antenna for this band), but on 10 meter they complain about really bad RF in 
the audio. What can be the cause, and what can I do about it?
