[Healeys] noise supression

[Oudesluys]

Try fitting a capacitor on the dynamo/alternator and if needed also on 
the heater fan and wiper motor. These items can usually be found in the 
auto store or you can use the ones as are fitted on your distributor.
Make sure that earth connections are solid and the the aerial and its 
wire mantel are solidly earthed.
Also probably available in auto shops are "noise killers" which are 
fitted in line in the supply wire. I do not know if these are polarity 
sensitive.
Position of the aerial can be important as well. Fit it as far away from 
the engine as possible. However if you have a hole in the front wing you 
are not going to drill another in the rear deck panel or rear wing
