That's the gentleman's agreement in north america, yes.


Actually it's channels 36 through 40.


Steveo is correct. The gentleman's agreement is channels 36 through
40 are reserved for sideband. It has been that way since 40 channel
CB's came out back in 1977. In the days of 23 channelCB radios
channel 16 was reserved for sideband by gentleman's agreement, but
channel 16 was pretty much abandoned by the sidebanders when the 40
channel radios came out. There is no official fcc law designating
sideband or am.
