I might be blocked by the thread police, but really, do need more information from you. Like what radio, antenna, frequency are you talking about. And extra should know this but I am new at ham radio so would like a little more information on the equipment you are having a problem with. Plus what are the setting in the radio, that is are there any tones set? Is it wide/narrow set? Once more information is known, someone may be able to offer a solution to your problem.
