    New guy in Texas, I recently purchased a Mini Coopers Convertible, love the car, however, I have had the top open once in the middle of the night, and this morning found the sun roof partially open???? I know this could be the key fob, but also wonder what frequency the fob is on, as I am a Ham radio operator, and wonder if my radio can be sending a sporadic signal to the top controls??
