SSB coming to European CB (via RSGB)

22/07/2011 • General

A decision by the European Union has paved the way for the use of single sideband on 27MHz CB across Europe. The revised regulation will permit European CB operators the use of SSB equipment running 12 watts PEP output in the frequency band 26.960 to 27.410MHz. The European Union decision to permit SSB on 11 meters came into force on 24 June and carries a preferred implementation by national telecommunications administrations of 1 October.
