Default WHIM And CB

How come my CB will transmit through the bike speakers but not though the Harley 30k headsets? Yes, I have made sure the audio is set for the headset and we’re on the same channel. It’s the same on both bikes. Tried adjusting the squelch with no change. CB used to work but all I hear is the keying of the CB.

I put it on the speakers and it worked. Then I switched it to headphones and all I get is a sound that it’s been keyed but no voice.

Let's start with some basics. What bike and radio do you have?

Also, do you have a WHIM; you need that to listen to music, CB, etc. in a wireless headset.

Bikes are 2020 TriGlide CVO and 2020 Limited CVO. Both have the WHIM and we’re using the 30K headset. The radio is the GTS. CB used to work great but doesn’t want to work this spring.

For clarification, your own CB transmissions will transmit through the bike speakers, but not through the headset?

Have you paired the headset to the WHIM?

They often become unpaired.

Are you expecting to hear something through the headset when transmitting?
