CB (Citizen Band Radio) channel 17 is hereby declared the official “Patriot Channel” should a blackout occur

Will be dialed in. Also have 2 meter set up and ready.

Channel 19 was the main channel in the old CB radio days on the highways. The truckers would say “take it down to 17” to people they wanted to talk to without the constant interruptions of people on 19. I learned how to talk to the truckers and win their favor as a “4 wheeler” and made a lot of good time in their “rocking chairs”.

To clarify my question, I wanted to know how many miles away can people talk/listen on a CB radio?

However, I am also curious about the frequency range for the CB radio? For example, my 12 band voice of the world receiver has a SW7 band that is 17.45-18.00MHZ.
