[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 951864, member: 175144"] [SIZE=5][B]SSB and AM legalisation[/B][/SIZE] Following most other European countries, Ofcom proposed to adopt European Communication Committee Decision (11)031 in October 2013 This would permit the use of [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-sideband_modulation']Single Sideband[/URL] and [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplitude_modulation']AM[/URL] operation on the CEPT CB radio band, and Ofcom proceeded with legislation to this effect on 27 June 2014. Furthermore, a recent cross forum/website vote took place and new recommended calling channels have been suggested: AM - Calling Channel 14 (27.125Mhz) SSB - Calling Channel 27 (27.275Mhz) FM - Calling Channel 31 (27.315Mhz) Over the first weekend of legal AM/SSB (27th, 28, 29 June 2014) a 'Big Multimode Net' event was organised by the UK CB radio community starting at midnight on the morning of 27 June 2014. CB radio operators up and down the UK stayed up late to be part of the event. Many contacts were made and the event was seen as a great success. Some operators made videos and posted them to video sharing sites such as YouTube. The new AM/SSB legislation only permits the use of new and approved sets, not 'legacy' multimode sets. :rolleyes: [URL]http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/binaries/consultations/citizens-band-radio/summary/citizen-band-radio.pdf[/URL] [/QUOTE]
