  2. CB radio in the United States - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CB_radio_in_the_United_States

    The CB Radio Service spectrum is divided into 40 numbered radio frequency channels from 26.965 to 27.405 MHz. Channel spacing is 10 kHz between channel centers with exceptions where CBRS channels are adjacent to Radio Control Radio Service. The initial channel allocations had a gap equal to two channel spaces between channels 22 and 23.

  3. 27 MHz CB27/81 Bandplan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/27_MHz_CB27/81_Bandplan

    The 27 MHz CB27/81 Bandplan is a list of the channel frequencies for FM CB radio in the United Kingdom. Unlike CB usage in the United States, and subsequently elsewhere in the world, the original UK 40 channels progress in order with 10 kHz spacing. These channels apply to UK-only radios meeting MPT-1320 (marked CB 27/81) [1] and MPT-1382 ...

  4. Channel spacing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_spacing

    Channel spacing. Channel spacing, also known as bandwidth [citation needed], is a term used in radio frequency planning. It describes the frequency difference between adjacent allocations in a frequency plan. Channels for mediumwave radio stations, for example are allocated in internationally agreed steps of 9 or 10 kHz: 10 kHz in ITU Region 2 ...

  5. Continuous Tone-Coded Squelch System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_Tone-Coded...

    The use of digital squelch on a channel that has existing tone squelch users precludes the use of the 131.8 and 136.5 Hz tones as the digital bit rate is 134.4 bits per second and the decoders set to those two tones will sense an intermittent signal (referred to in the two-way radio field as "falsing" the decoder).

  6. Radio spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_spectrum

    The radio spectrum is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum with frequencies from 3 Hz to 3,000 GHz (3 THz). Electromagnetic waves in this frequency range, called radio waves, are widely used in modern technology, particularly in telecommunication. To prevent interference between different users, the generation and transmission of radio ...

  7. Citizens band radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_band_radio

    Shown with Astatic brand D-104 desk mic. Citizens band radio (CB radio) is a land mobile radio system, a system allowing short-distance one-to-many bidirectional voice communication among individuals, using two-way radios operating near 27 MHz (or the 11-m wavelength) in the high frequency or shortwave band.

  8. Shortwave bands - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortwave_bands

    Shortwave bands are frequency allocations for use within the shortwave radio spectrum (the upper medium frequency [MF] band and all of the high frequency [HF] band). Radio waves in these frequency ranges can be used for very long distance (transcontinental) communication because they can reflect off layers of charged particles in the ionosphere and return to Earth beyond the horizon, a ...

  9. CB radio in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CB_radio_in_the_United_Kingdom

    CB radio in the United Kingdom. Citizens band radio (often shortened to CB radio) is a system of short-distance radio communications between individuals on a selection of 40 channels within the 27- MHz (11 m) band. In the United Kingdom, CB radio was first legally introduced in 1981, but had been used illegally for some years prior to that.
