What can I do to fix this everytime I key up my CB radio it causes my GPS receiver to lose signal and I have to unplug it and plug it in again to get signal back GPS is outside opposite of antennae?
There is no way to solve the problem. Because of the high power of the CB transmitter and the low power of the satellite signals, the CB signal clips the GPS receiver, and it can even damage your GPS. The CB and the GPS unit work on entirely different frequencies, to be sure, but the fact that a several watt transmitter of any kind is right on top of a GPS unit can hammer the GPS. There is no way to "limit" the radiated power of the CB (if you still want it to work) so that it won't affect the GPS.
