I have just bought a Pogo Alert and, although it appears to work fine, it is causing interference with my car’s FM radio. I have tried the Pogo in two other cars and had the same problem. Has anyone else noticed the same problem with their Pogo and, if so, was it resolved by hard wiring the unit rather than using the cigarette lighter power supply.
I’d appreciate your thoughts, thanks

I'v called Pogo's customer service dept and they were very helpful, they say they have seen the problem before with some cars and that they are sending me an alternative power lead that should cure the problem. I'll let you know if it works.

OK will do. The new cable has not arrived yet. From the response that I got from Pogo, I would say that they have seen the problem lots of times.
