My battery charger causes interfence with FM radio reception. The strongest local channel will come in OK, but somewhat weaker channels won't. Any suggestions?

just for starters..

The first thing I would do is try a battery operated inside your boat. If you get the same noise the on the portable radio than filters on the wires won't work. If you don't get the noise on the portable radio than a better ground or filters may help. good luck, Jack

What type of battery charger

is on your boat? Is it an electronic three stage? Is it a ferroresonate type. The kind with a transformer. Fair Winds Cap'n Dave
