Is it jst in the cb or do you also have it in your speakers. Im taking it the cb is wired in, not plugged into the cigar lighter?

Its just the CB its coming in at the antenna so I need a fix at the alt. I added a radio cap at the battery side but didnt help much.I also have a lot of noise off my injectors but I plan to wrap them in copper tape and ground it. I have already placed ferrit beads over everything.EVERYTHING!!! Cut the antenna loose and I have no noise from anything????

where do you have the antenna cable running? be sure that the antenna cable is not running alongside of any wires with a power source going through it

Power comes off the battery useing the big RG-8 shielded coax grounded at battery and inside at the radio end.Coax from antenna comes from the toolbox mount. They dont travel together.I may be a little picky but I like my mobile to be very quite like my base station.I know its possible as I have had it in the past.You cant here the whine until theres a quiet period on the channel but Id like to cure this.And I will. LOL
