The only thing that fixed it finally was on my '85 Suburban, I rewired where the radio gets it's power from on the fuse block. It had an aftermarket head unit, the other 2 had stock radios. I've never heard of others having similar issues but that may be the source of yours unless you've already figured it out and it's something else.

Either which way, your "budget build" is way awesome, great work man!
I have not. i have been using the bluetooth and it works fine so i was starting to think that there was something wrong with the radio. I used the original power wire (yellow i think) for the radio and ran a separate wire from the fuse block for the constant power. I will try to run a wire directly from the battery and see if it makes a difference. I appreciate the tip!
