CB radios

CB radios, or Citizens Band radios, are short-range communication devices that allow people to talk to each other over radio waves without using a license. Commonly used by truck drivers and enthusiasts, CB radios operate on 40 designated channels in the 27 MHz band. They are ideal for quick, informal conversations, especially in areas without cellular service. Users typically communicate using a handheld microphone. CB radios often include features like weather alerts and the ability to connect with other devices, making them popular for roadside assistance and group communication during travel or outdoor activities.
