This is bizzare

The schematic shows a pot near the SSB Delay switch. It is labeled as VR1.
That is used to set the timed delay at the factory.
The pot is labeled VR1 not VR2, sorry my bad.

I'm going to pull a schematic and look at it. Not real familiar with your amp. What is the brand and model number? Is it new or bought second hand?

Brand new texas star 500v.

Open the pdf file in the right before the one you posted. Look for VR1 near the SSB delay switch. There is the answer to the rest of your problems. Or you can send it back for warranty service.

The root cause has been found. Theres a black box done by the fuse panel, it controls my camera. Either when bobs installed the power wire they knocked the box loose or it could of been knocked loose from the bouncing of the truck. I played around with the box moving it in different directions. I found that moving the box closer to the fuse box causes electrical interference even thru my radio. So i did my damnest to get that box out of the way. As of rite now zero interference! Hopefully that box will stay put. When it’s not raining out I’ll rip apart the dash to get that box secured. At least we now know the root cause and if i get that interference again, I’ll have to play around with that box. Thanks again for all your help. I consider this post now closed......FINALLY!
