ELIMINATION OF LICENSING

The Federal Communications Commission (F.C.C.) has ruled that Citizens Band (CB)

Radio Service operators no longer are required to obtain an F .C.C. license to operate

their CB equipment. In doing so, the F.C.C. also decided to permit 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 a CB radio station is still required to comply with the Communications Act and with the rules of CB Radio Service.
