CB radio help!!
« on: January 16, 2015, 08:14:55 PM »
I have a Cobra 75 cb radio and I installed it about a year ago, it had been working fine until about a month ago when it would start to make noises out of the left tweeter whenever I spoke (I could hear perfectly clear) and now I went to test it out again because I am going for a FS ride tomorrow and not just the left tweeter but both now make a horrible noise whenever I press the talk button on the cb (I can still hear others clearly)

HELP!!

We'll see what we can do with it in the morning. Get there early. Doesn't sound like a normal problem though so not sure what we will be able to do.

first check and make sure you don't have coax crossing any of the stereo wires. That could cause crossover noise. Other than that, not sure what could be going on.

Turn radio off and ok?  Radio issue not cb issue?

Maybe coax rubbed thru?

Don't know.

Separate ground. And yes it makes the noise even if the car is completely off and I turn on the cb.
