Ofcom intention to legalise SSB CB in 2013

[Lightspeed]

Hi guys, hope your preps are progressing to plan.

Some good news for prepper radio communications:

Ofcom has published that it is intending to comply with EU CB Harmonisation standards.

This will at last allow the use of SSB mode on CB radios in the UK, and an increase in power on SSB to 12w. This will be a license free service, the same as exists across the rest of Europe already.

This is good news for preppers as it opens up longer range ground communications, as well as long distance “skip” communications, certainly into Europe, and at times worldwide.

Compliant Radios for operating in the SSB mode cost from a little over £100 and are usually able to interact with all of the existing UK CB FM frequencies.
