... to get off of FM muting, you have to switch to mono. When i do that, my radio station turns to static.  Any other suggestions?
Do you have an antenna on the receiver? Many receivers and separate tuners will go into mute if the signal is too low.

... if i connect an antenna, it may switch off of muting?
Yes. Even a simple wire dipole may suffice.
