BlacXJeep:
your jeep dies when you key the mic? thats a hell of a kill switch ;D

Flex:
soounds like u got something shorting out i would remove the whole system and wiring and then re install keeping the wires away from everything. either way this is pretty funny.

gearhead1985B:
I have rewired regrounded and checked every thing i am now looking at rf interfearance it only cuts out on channels 1-30 so any ideas

B52BUFF:
Sounds like you have a short in the radio itself.  Also consider where you are stealing power from to operate the CB.  There isn't enough power being produced to cause any RF related problems from the radio.  When you hooked up the radio did you terminate the negative lead at a terminal or on the chassis?  Is the power you are using Switched or Unswitched? (Do you have to turn on the ignition to get power)  I would find another CB to wire up and see if the same thing occurs.  Try to rule out the radio itself as the problem.  If you put another radio (borrow one that you know is good) in and the same thing happens then you have deeper problems otherwise you may need to find a new radio.  I think WillC has one.
