    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_band_radio

    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.

  3. CB radio in the United States - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CB_radio_in_the_United_States

    It is intended to be a two-way voice communication service for use in personal and business activities of the general public, and has a reliable communications range of several miles, though the range is highly dependent on type of radio, antenna and propagation. CB radio is most frequently used by long-haul truck drivers for everything from ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_masts_and_towers

    For transmissions in the shortwave range, there is little to be gained by raising the antenna more than a half to three quarters of a wavelength above ground level, and at lower frequencies and longer wavelengths, the height becomes infeasibly great (greater than 85 metres (279 ft)). Shortwave transmitters rarely use masts taller than about 100 ...

  5. Antenna types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_types

    An elaborated and expanded version of a 'T' antenna; it is a very large wire transmitting antenna used on VLF bands for VLF time signals or long-range submarine communications. Umbrella antennas are enormous on human-scale but are paradoxically ultra-short antennas, relative to the even larger wavelengths they are built for.

  6. Rubber ducky antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_ducky_antenna

    Before the rubber ducky, antennas on portable radios usually consisted of quarter-wave whip antennas, rods whose length was one-quarter of the wavelength of the radio waves used. [1] In the VHF range where they were used, these antennas were 0.6 or 0.9 m (2 or 3 feet) long, making them cumbersome. They were often made of telescoping tubes that ...

  7. Personal radio service - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_radio_service

    Examples of standardized services include PMR446 and FM Citizens Band Radio (CB) in the EU and several other countries/regions. 26–27 MHz CB radio is the oldest personal radio service and is used in nearly every country worldwide, with many countries and regions copying the United States 40-channel frequency plan. In many countries, CB radio ...
