CB Band Frequency Chart PDF

The document lists the frequency chart for CB radio channels 1 through 40. It provides the channel number, frequency, and typical intermediate frequency (IF) for each channel. It notes that channel 9 is the emergency channel indicated in yellow and channel 19 is commonly used for highway communication indicated in violet. Some channels are also used for radio control (R/C) purposes, with channel 23 shared between R/C and CB but allowing higher power of 25 watts for R/C on that channel.

The "Typical IF" frequency is the frequency that is commonly used with 455 kHz If amplifiers; this
frequency is often called the "receive frequency" when referring to crystals.
Channel 9 is the "emergency channel" indicated by yellow and channel 19 is the commonly used
highway channel indicated by violet.
R/C indicated frequencies used for radio control and industrial purposes. Channel 23 is shared
with R/C but the allowed power for R/C is 25 watts on this one channel (4 watts on the others,
like CB). Most serious R/C is done on other bands due to the significant potential for interference

on the CB band. Most R/C on this band is for low-power toys, typically operating on 27.145 MHz.
Channels 13 and 14 are very near 27.12 MHz, a commonly used frequency for high-power
industrial devices, as indicated by the dark green. However, these industrial uses have a wide
tolerance that includes all the CB channels below channel 28.
The CB band once consisted of 23 channels with a couple of channels left unused below
channel 23. When the band was expanded to 40 channels, the two skipped channels were
included as channel 24 and 25 which is why they are lower in frequency than channel 23.
Other devices including near-field transmitters share this band and low power narrow-band FM
walkie-talkies share the R/C channels.
