Citizen band (CB) radio has been around since the 1950s with a surge in popularity in the late 1970s due to trucker movies and pop culture of the day. The radios have lost much of their popularity since the advent and more common use of cell phones for mobile communications.

The mobile CB, designed for use in a car or truck, can be used as a base unit in the home with a little modification. Tips Writer Bio
