    Recently when I key up on the mic I get noise through my stereo speakers. If I turn the stereo off completely it's not an issue. Any ideas? Stock Galaxy 959b in 379 Pete. Tried different coax routing with no luck.

    Not uncommon. ..Stray RF getting into stereo...you can try better grounding your CB, and stereo, or...

    Do like I do and keep the stereo turned OFF when talking on the CB...no one on the CB wants to hear your stereo in the background anyway...

    Putting your fingers on the metal plug where the mic plugs into the radio is a "quick and dirty" way to check for ground issues. feedback,static, odd noises.
