I was checking a couple of MURS radios today and was transmitting in my kitchen, the wall GFCI Plug started to buss when I transmitted and no longer works.

Anyone ever have that happen to them?

I’ve heard of it happening with ham radios but usually higher power than MURS. 
You might check to see if your GFI is truly grounded. Sometimes GFIs are installed in lieu of a ground wire in older homes.
