did you use a power inverter? sometimes the proximity of the power inverter to the playstation, its cords feeding the signal to the hu can cause soem weird interference.

try running an extension cord to in from your house and see if its clear and if it is youll probaly have to buy a pretty good one.

i always mount the inverter as far from everything as i can .....i dont have a rule of thumb other than the cord still needs to reach....

have you got one with terminals or one that plugs into a cigarette lighter? i prefer the ones with terminals...they cost a little more but they will run longer....those i hardwire to the battery...,....
