also double check your ground, good solid ground, not sheet metal, sanded to bare metal, not scuffed paint, and be sure the ground wire is equal to or largewr than the power wire, as well as short as possible, then turn ur gain all the way DOWN, start from there if you are still experiencing protection, unbridge it
