Do you mean the antenna on the camera? So basically the antenna should be vertical and centered on the camera, and pointed toward the truck as much as possible?

I installed a 3mm ferrite choke on the power line and this eliminated most of that problem.

Did you access the power wire from inside the back of the camper? I have cabinets across the back. Do you have to remove the cabinet back panels to get to the wire? Or did you find the wire somewhere else?



No if you remove the camera from the housing there will be a 1/4 inch connector that plugs into the camera itself. Clamp a choke on above the connector and push the whole thing back into the camera housing will take you longer to get the 4 screws out than the rest of the job.
