    Computer Interference?

    How bad would a computer interfere with a CB? I'm thinking of setting up my radios on my desk about 3 feet from my computer tower and about 6-8 inches from my monitor BUT... The antenna cable would have to run behind the tower and monitor to get to the radios. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks...

    Like JJD said and showed as well, shouldn’t be an issue unless you are using some very cheap coax that has little to no shielding.

    I have always used the military grade RG-215 instead of the normal RG-214. It has a better shield coverage of 99 percent. However, high wattage still has a large magnetic field and might interfere with any nearby cabling.
