Has anybody had any experience with the Arkon powered speaker mount, I find it works great with an Ipaq but when an xda1 or xda2 is used in it the noise from the speaker is atrocious. It doesnt matter what volume level is set to and the noise can be present even when it isnt powered on, its the same noise you sometimes get through the car speakers when the phone is hunting or a new repeater or jumping from one repeater to another but this is magnified about a hundredfold. I like the mount with all its options and inbuilt speaker but would like to be able to use it with the phone, when it rings its a cacophony of sounds and distortion. Would it be possible to it an antiference filter in line similar to the item used in the car to stop radio intererence, any ideas how to stop direct RF breakthrough to the speaker would be much appreciated.
