WARNING
The Citizens Band (CB) Radio Service is under the jurisdiction of the FCC. Any adjustments or alterations which would alter the performance of the transceiver’s original FCC type acceptance or would change the frequency determining method, are strictly prohibited.
Replacement or substitution of crystals, transistors, IC’s, regulator diodes or any other part of a unique nature, with parts other than those recommended by Uniden, may cause violation of the technical regulations of Part 95 of the FCC rules or violation of type acceptance requirements of Part 2 of the rules.
Elimination of Licensing
The FCC has ruled that CB Radio Service operators are not required to obtain an FCC license to operate the CB equipment. The FCC also permits CB station operation without station identification.
Elimination of individual station licenses results in no lessening of the operating privileges or responsibilities of CB users. An operator of an CB radio station is still required to comply with the Communications Act and with the rules of CB Radio Service.
