Default CB interference over my bluetooth.

I have a Uniden 880 and any time I'm using the Bluetooth to listen to music and key my mic the head unit picks up my CB. Anyone have any thoughts?

I had that problem in an old jeep with the antenna mounted on the third brake light. I mounted it on the driver side cowl in front of the windshield and ran new coax. Never had an issue after.

Where are you drawing power for the CB?

be sure the CB cable isn't run next to anything else and be sure there are no cuts in the sheathing. Isolate the power from everything(run straight to battery or relay)

Sorry, I forgot to subscribe to my own thread. So I had it installed locally originally with the antenna fender mounted but had it moved to the rear to protect it after going down some over grown trails.
