Re: CB Channel Consensus
there's also some function of which channel to use depending on your route
of travel.
I remember something of this....not what it is exactly.
But say if you're traveling East/West you'd use ch24 and if you were
traveling North/South you'd use ch12.

Re: CB Channel Consensus
Well, out here in the PDX area we commonly use 24, up around Seattle area its
commonly 4, 5, or 6 It really depends on your local area. OBH commonly runs on Ch
28. But then again many of us dont hardly use the cb anymore and use HAM radio (need
license to use) instead.

If it's FM, it's probably business band or something like that. It's
definitely not a CB, as all CB's, including SSB units, are AM.
