I can pull in the driveway and key my mic and it turns on my lamp in the living room. Its one of those touch lamps so you you key once for dim, twice for normal and three times for bright!! Kinda handy after it quit freaking me out!!
I have a similar problem after installing my CB. But it's not the powered antenna going up and down, it's my powered door locks keep locking by themselves, even with the CB radio off. I think it has something to do with my CB antenna. Because it doesn't do that when I remove the antenna.
It's doing this because you wired it into the power and earth that feed the car radio, wire it straight to the battery or find another feed that doesn't go to the radio. Put the earth to a metal part of the car
@panosalitis really no, but that half right, positive from battery, negative on it's own ground point to body, not along with another ground for something else, this prevents ground loops and other devices searching for a ground through your radio, I also solved almost 95% of my ignition and injector, and AC fan motor noise by moving the radios ground to the body, but if it is on a positive ground vehicle don't ask me, strait to the battery may be the only choice you have.
Hey guys, this is my car. It's a 94 Ford Taurus SHO and seriously I just have a + and - wires of the CB radio wired to the same wires that the radio in my car uses. The CB doesn't touch the antenna wire or servo signal at all. Another interesting thing to note is that when I push to talk, all the controls on my radio illuminate too; as if I turned on my headlights. Crazy RFI!!!!!
It's not RFI, it's the fact that your car uses a positive ground while your radio is a negative ground. You need to run straight to the battery or to a marked, unused accessory power point capable of supplying at least 5A.
Seriously though, I think it's because when you use that circuit for more than just a few milliamps it's powering up the radio. I don't think it's RFI.
@F41Driver yep it has to be positive ground vehicle, whats going on is a ground loop from his cb antenna, because it is only happening when he keys up. Just put in a switch to deactivate the antenna motor while using the cb if it bothers you, but them again you may want to anyway, it may not be good for the radio, the loop is bridging battery-radio-coax sheild-antenna mount-body-fm antenna motor grounded lead-motor-battery, see the problem? So it is basically a RFI problem, just RF current
Lol

@pwhite7608 10 meters refers to the 10 meter ham radio band (28.000-29.700 MHz)and 11 meters is another term for CB.

Best thing to do is to get the power straight from your battery, it's gotta have something to do with the power leads to your radio.

That's wicked bro. Do you have your Audio wire on your mic split to control the servo/motor on the antenna?
