I wonder where the law stands as far as CB radio's go. Are CB's allowed

be repaired by the average CB'er who has the knowledge or are they only
repairable by a qualified technician of some kind. I ask along the lines

the UK but would find the answer for America just as interesting.

I can't answer your question, but perhaps this is one of those cases
where it is better not to ask, but to carry on as before. Having a
piece of gear repaired by a certified authority will probably cost
more than buying a new one....

Thanks for that, quick answer too )
I would agree about the cost from a Certified Authority as most CB's in the
UK are only worth between $26 - $52 and the repair bill from a qualified
"tech" would be more than this... and would they indeed bother as they could
make far more money with the same effort repairing other items more
valuable...
I was just curious as to the legallity of repairing a CB. I wasnt admitting
to anything.. honest .... ;o)
