The CB radio service should not be confused with FRS, GMRS, MURS, or amateur ("ham") radio. " Part 95 of the FCC Rules does not state that CB = GMRS Should I believe Wikipedia, the FCC, or you? The problem with Wiki is anyone can modify / create it. sarcasm Give me a minute and I'll go change the Wiki to say that 490 -510 mhz is open game for anyone. /sarcasm There are several radio services covered under 47 C.F.R Part 95. The FCC describes three of them as being part of the Citizen Band Radio Services (CB, FRS and MURS.) The GMRS radio service is not described by the FCC as being part of Citizen Band Radio Services.
