[QUOTE="Greenhornet_au, post: 613240, member: 8767"] My Spider senses would say "no" they should not, considering they are on way different frequencies, and while you detect the UHF would not be transmitting, but waiting for a signal. Also air separation from the coil would help. BUT there may be components within the circuitry of the detector that may "harmonise" with your UHF components that are energised, although not transmitting. I very much doubt a UHF handheld would do anything to a PI, not mine, but I dont own anything 'high end' PI anyway. Have you tested it ? As Tath said, have you experienced this ? If it has happened, did you try it with another 5W UHF ? As it could be that one radio with leaking, or out of standard components. Just my Spider senses guess.... We use UHF radios all the time, never had any issues. :cool: [/QUOTE]
