He is using solar power, in other words he has a real massive UPS system. You are right; we have ran across the same problem with customers in the countryside.

I can't find the email, but I think you said the farmer has to generate his own power. I'm wondering just how "clean" his power is. While I've never check on what kind of filtering (if any) SB has on it's power supplies, if he has dirty power this might be causing some of your problems. You could plug the radio into a UPS system running on the battery and see if it helps. Just an idea, good luck figuring this out.
