fcc has bigger fish to fry then a CB repeater running 4 watts. was wondering where the kilo kops were at today :) surprised the thread made it this far. any way. you solved the mystery for me and i have passed it along to the CB forums i am in. some rich little trustfund brat with more money then he knows what to do with will probably read it and wind up building one. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian Raker" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, February 12, 2010 2:32 PM Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Just a Crazy Thought > It's specified in the US FCC Regs that repeaters (which are > essentially remote control stations) are not allowed in the 27MHz CB > band. > > http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/cfr_2008/octqtr/47cfr95.419.htm > > TITLE 47--TELECOMMUNICATION > > CHAPTER I--FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (CONTINUED) > > PART 95_PERSONAL RADIO SERVICES--Table of Contents > > Subpart D_Citizens Band (CB) Radio Service > > Sec. 95.419 (CB Rule 19) May I operate my CB station transmitter by > remote > control? > > (a) You may not operate a CB station transmitter by radio remote > control. > (b) You may operate a CB transmitter by wireline remote control if > you obtain specific approval in writing from the FCC.
