First check to make sure that you have 14.1-14.4V at the battery at med RPM when the engine is warm. Then check all the connections between the battery and the fuse box looking for loose connections, and make sure that you have your radio is hooked up to the right fuse. Then make sure that your radio has a good ground. The antenna shield is NOT a good ground. What you're describing is NOT normal. - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- Too much?
