Pyramid wireless keying CM300

I have a CM300 mobile with a Pyramid wireless mic. Every time the car is parked at the office, the CM300 keys and stays keyed until time out and then keys again.
Can blue tooth, wi-fi, video recorder download or other stray signals cause the mic to key a transmitter? No other cars have this problem.
