Question: what is the difference between a 2 way radio and a cb?
Answer: CB radios are limited in power output to a maximum of 5 watts AM or 12 watts PEP (in single sideband/SSB mode). They operate in the 27 MHz band, using any one of 40 channels assigned by the FCC. Two way radios, commonly referred to as "walkie-talkie" radios, are usually hand held, and can be extremely compact in size.
