Hello,
just joined this site and found this post.
Yes cb is back big time lots of new kit coming out.
Plus we now have EU band AM,FM,SSB available all licence free and pan EU compatible.
VOIP gateway is possible but needs infrastructure to support it officially.
Most Eu countries do allow VOIP gateways including UK.
Data packet does work and works very well.
Simplex parrot repeaters are becoming popular way to extend your range from a fixed location.
There is some very pro-end kit available now handhelds same size as VHF and mobiles Pan Europeans for use in any country,some can be expanded if in a non EU country and higher power levels.
When I've been camping down Tenby way,I use a cb base in Tent with 10m telescopic fiber pole to mount antenna system on,and car mobile and hand portables setup,saves using phone or where some areas you just cant get phone signals are a bit iffy,even now.
In some places i've easily got 30+miles operations from base to car which is very practical and free! (once you got the kit) and can take it where you want it.
I've been involved in 2 way radio for 35+ years and still see cb as a means to communicate,esp for 4x4,campers,hikers.
The equipment has come a long way since 80's and is very well made and on par with professional 2 way radios in build quality.
2 bands are now available in UK
EU 26.965mhz to 27.405mhz Modes Am 12W PEP,NFM 4w,SSB 12Watts
UK 27.60125mhz to 27.99125mhz NFM 4W only
some radios do contain secret menus to up the RF power levels from 15 to 50watts if required in isolated countries.
Any questions please ask,Im more than welcome to help!
