HID driving lights and HF operations

Post by VK3BA »

G'day all,

I'm about to order a pair of Lightforce Genesis HID driving lights http://www.lightforce.com/hid/products/hid_genesis

Has anyone got a pair of any HID lights on their vehicle that are also regular mobile HF users, with your HF antenna also mounted at the front of the vehicle??

Do you have any interference issues on HF when using your HID lights? If so, is it only in the first few seconds after the lights are first switched on? Especially on 80m & 40m ??

Any feedback is welcomed. Thanks.

Cheers,
Nik VK3BA

Thanks Matt. Looks like I won't be putting any HID's on the forby anytime soon...
