6600M freezes when I key my HT.

Good morning Just got my DMR radio HT programmed last night.  Was listening to my net and I wanted to see if I can hit the repeater.  Here is where it gets crazy.  When I key it up (HT) the 6600M freezes. Latest software.   Any Ideas.

    RF is getting into your rig or computer (best bet it's the computer). Easiest solution is to put some distance between your DMR rig and computer.  Antennas away from radios, good grounding, ferrites, high quality shielded cables, wireless mouse and keyboard all will help with EMI issues.

    And if you are not using a computer, choke the Ethernet cable and the power into the radio.

    Thanks Got ferrites on almost every cable.  Power cable. cat 6 cables, antenna connects and so on.  Small room here for a shack so moving the HT away is kind of hopeless.  may just turn off the flex when I am talking on the HT.
