Is CB Radio VHF or UHF?

CB Radio is neither UHF nor is it VHF

CB (Citizens Band) radio operates on frequencies in the HF (High Frequency) band, specifically around 27 MHz.

This places it neither in the VHF (Very High Frequency) nor the UHF (Ultra High Frequency) bands.

  • VHF ranges from 30 MHz to 300 MHz.
  • UHF ranges from 300 MHz to 3 GHz.

CB radio frequencies (around 27 MHz) are below both VHF and UHF bands.
