RE: glitching
x,tals are the little freqency chips that are in your transmitter and receiver, personally i think it sounds like its not charged up enough most chargers go green when fully charged stick it on for awhile longer and see,

RE: glitching
i might have thought it was fully charged when it was orange caue when i first got it i charged it for like 12 hours and it was orange so you think it should change to a green light when it is fully charged(makes more sense)

RE: glitching
well i would have guessed yes...
in the kit it should at least say what colours there should be on it, im using a pro peak V plus charger, red means its on fast charge, orange is slow charge, green means finished..
actually green is allways finish im thinking??.. humm.. do a search on good for your charger and read a write up, or tell us what it is and il do it for you...

RE: glitching
Also make sure you are using a good quality FM radio. I used an AM radio on my old ride and it glitched all over the place, until I swapped it out for an FM. No problem since then.
