    Just moved into a new truck with the factory set up and antennas and I can't talk to someone or hear them in less there right on top of me. Also I can't get any squelch when I turn the squelch up or down. Any ideas what type of problem im dealing with? Thanks in advance.

    Your dealing with a piece of junk stock antenna and coax setup. Replace it all and your problem solved.
