"January 1, 1983 is the historic date of the transition to 40 channels with AM, USB & LSB, in addition to FM for France.

On January 1st 2023 we will celebrate, for one week, on the 40 approved Cibi channels, the 40th anniversary of the switch to the NFC 92412 standard allowing all phonic modes on the frequency range from 26,960 to 27,410 Mhz. Be the most possible.

January 1, 1983: The modification of the approval of the Cibi stations of 22 FM channels for vice-procedure to 40 FM/AM/USB/LSB channels, with a maximum emission power of 4 watts crest, under the standard NFC 92412. This was done thanks to the associations of the time, which mobilized themselves to develop the Cibi. Thus, the 11 FM call channel was quickly abandoned in France by the Cibists to make way for the call channels: 4 USBs for the DX, 19 AM for the road (both were already used, but pirated), 27 AM for the landlines and the 38 LSB for the DX as well.
