Narrative:
There were several airplanes working the pattern using [the same runway]. I was returning and entered the pattern. An aircraft landing in front of me was attempting to transmit on his radio; but nothing but static was transmitted blocking all other radio transmissions on the frequency. I was distracted by the break in radio communication and this may have contributed to my loss of directional control causing me to inadvertently leave the runway.
