The last time we had the CB in my truck we had some funky things going on with the gauges while transmitting. When I was keying up the RPM gauge starting swinging back and forth as we spoke. This only happening when I had the ignition in Aux. I know I could turn the truck off but then I run into the problem of draining my battery. It was also a very cold night.



We were set up with a TRC485 and a 102" with 3 mag mount. The cable is RG58AU with PL259 connectors and using a standard stud mount. The truck is a 2002 Toyota Rav 4.



I love going mobile but I don't want to blow up my truck. Any suggestions?
