Here is how my system is set up...

My Uniden PC68XL is wired directly to the battery both Positive and negative.
My Amp the positive comes directly from the battery. The negative is as short as possible and is attached to a seat bolt which goes directly to the frame.

I used braided strap to ground the body to the frame and the engine to the frame. And I grounded the battery better than the stock ground.

No chassis grounds from any equipment.

When I added a another amp, I added a battery which used the original amps power from battery and grounded the second battery to another seat bolt. The second amp was then grounded to a third seat bolt and both amps are powered from the batteries.

I guess this would eliminate the "loop" problem.

After reading this thread 40 or 50 times in the past few weeks, I had to go look at my set up to make sure of how I had done it.
