I have a 1982 SFV-1 unit with 16' between the compressor and evaporator
and have just rewired it with 10AWG.
The manual states that the unit shuts down for 10.5v at the terminals
and will restart at 11.5v. Is the 11.5v measured just before the 7.6A
starting current flows or while it is flowing and therefore causing a
further 400mv drop in my case?

After its running.....

By the way, this wonderful piece of technology is the rhythmic buzzing
sound in a regular, very annoying pattern ONLY on Channel 16 where it will
cause the most interference....

bzzzt....bzzt....bzztbzztbzzt.........(repeats every 3 seconds or so)

Took me a while to figure out where the damned noise I couldn't squelch out
was coming from. Shut off the fridge's 12V....noise gone.

Consider yourself VERY lucky if you can't hear it. Check your antenna and
VHF range, just to make sure it's working!

We never got rid of that little bzzzt noise. You cannot shield it out.
