The Citizens Band lies between the shortwave broadcast and 10-meter
Amateur radio bands, and was established by law in 1949. The Class D
two-way communications service was opened in 1959. (CB also in-
cludes a Class A citizens band and Class C remote control frequencies.)
FCC regulations permit only ÒtransmissionsÓ (one party to another)
rather than ÒbroadcastsÓ (to a wide audience). Thus, advertising is not
allowed on CB channels because this is Òbroadcasting.Ó
Replacement or substitution of transistors, regular diodes or
other parts of a unique nature, with parts other than those rec-
ommended by Cobra, may cause violation of the technical reg-
ulations of Part 95 of the FCC Rules, or violation of Type
Acceptance requirements of Part 2 of the Rules.
Citizens Band (CB) Radio operators are no longer required to
obtain an FCC license to operate their CB equipment or pro-
vide station identification.
Nevertheless, an operator of a CB radio station is still required
to comply with the communications act and with the rules of
CB Radio Operation.
