CB RadioA citizens’ band radio is better known by its shortened name cb radio. It is a communications radio which allows individuals to communicate over short distances on a selection of 40 channels all within the 27MHz band.

CB does not require a license and it may be used for business as well as personal communications. Like many other two-way radio services, cb radios are shared by multiple users. Only one station may transmit at a time. The party on the other station must listen and wait for the shared channel to be available.
