So, I installed my radio in a nice new tuffy overhead console. The CB got wired into the fuse box behind the glove box and grounded. Then I turn my key back so its just radio and wipers and stuff CB worked fine. SWR meter says i'm good with a little under a reading of 2...all seeemed fine. Then i turned off the CB...started up the jeep..go to turn on the radio and NOTHING. The weather band on my CB is working perfect, just like it should. I switch the knob thing over to CB and i don't even get static its like the channels dont' work..i checked squelch everything i could possably do and nothing. So i returned the CB and got a new one, same model. installed it..same thing..perfect when the key is turned back but once i start the jeep and THEN turn on the CB its crapped out. I did a voltage check on the fuse box with the key turned back and then once with the jeep running...same. But the CB was off so i don't see how it could have fried it and the antenna doesn't seem to have a problem cause it works fine with my weather station and all the readings are the same in the SWR meter. So i dunno..mayhap me and CBs wasn't made to be.
help?...please.
