Default Handheld problem in NORDO plane

The problem is the handheld transceiver I'm using to communicate. It
works fine on the ground. But as soon as I get 100-200 feet off the
ground it gets overwhelmed with static, like the squelch is wide open.


Is it only when you transmit? (Sparkplugs likely, in that case.)
