This. PW is exactly right here. I'd bet bad ground.

Turned out to be the ignition feed. The battery and ground were fine but the ignition feed voltage would fluctuate wildly when the was moving. I ended up splitting a line I was using for the HU and installed a switch in the 'batwing'. I have some pictures I'll post later.
