Why would a radio cut out when the car is in motion?

Radio works only when in park or stopped and at about 2-4 mph.

Look for loose or frayed wiring and connections. Does the power stay on (lights on stereo) or does everything die?

Ok. You're looking for something most likely in either the power or ground circuits.
