Radio and GPS interference

[Questions]

When I have the FM Radio and GPS on while riding, the radio starts to fade in and out like it is losing the radio station signal. I turn the GPS off and the radio works great. I have had it checked out by my dealer and they moved some wires around. It is still doing the same thing. I do not have a CB installed (yet). Do I need to adjust the VOX or is that only for CB communications?

VOX is for the intercom.

Some gps will broad cast an fm signal through your speakers, check to see if gps audio is on internal or external mode.

Does it do that on all FM channels or only some (low channels vs high)?

Is this the BRP stock FM and stock GPS?

It sounds to me as if your GPS has a built in FM modulator that is to say a mini-FM broadcast station.

Check the set up menus of the GPS and if there is a section where you can specify a frequency then you will need to disable it.

Exactly what I was thinking Roger.
