Hey John,
I cant help you with your problem. Dont know chit about stereos. BUT, I called your cell, got your voice mail. Give me a call. I wanted to see what you were doing this coming weekend. I went out on my first run of the year today.
I am ready to go.

Most installers will seperate the Pos from the Ground to avoid radio interference. Check your wiring. Also, most guys will tell you to run your ground to the terminal of your battery to avoid other interference.

Re: Radio Guru's.....
you can accomplish the same thing with a 3 dollar capacitor. ground the case, hook wire to positive feed to radio. Thats all a "noise filter" is but in a box.
