Australia to Legalise FM on 27Mhz CB Radio and more....

Video:YouTube/Ham Radio DX

So it looks like Australia will be joining the ever growing list of countries which allow the use of FM on 27Mhz CB Radio... (Who would have thought that when the UK legalised FM in 1981 that we would end up being way ahead of our time!)

Other proposals include the ability to connect CB radios to the internet for the purpose of VoIP applications.

Special Event: 50 Years of CB Radio in Germany

 

From our radio friends in Germany:

On the 1st July 1975 CB radio (Citizens Band) was officially released in Germany. Back then it started on a few channels and with very limited power. For the first time, the CB radio offered private individuals the opportunity to use radios without an amateur radio license - for leisure, hobby, but also for practical purposes such as communication in traffic or at events.

Over the decades, CB radio evolved further - new frequencies were added, the permitted output power was increased, AM, FM and later SSB modes were allowed. Today, CB radio is not as ubiquitous as it used to be, but it still has an active community.

From 1st July until 7th July 2025 on channel 31 FM (27.315) a radio week commemorating the 50th anniversary will take place. Everyone is invited to listen in, join in, and celebrate the anniversary of German CB radio together!
