CB radios, ham radios, and frs.gmrs radios outlawed
It is also fine to use microphones with a locking PTT, you
are allowed to lock a microphone while driving as long as it is fixed down properly.] Not in the U.S. you aren't. It is a violation of FCC rules to do so. *http://www.citizensband.radiouk.com |

It is a violation of FCC rules to do so. So, don't use one in the U.S. of A. I thought that your moan was about Canada outlawing hand microphones. Is it a violation of FCC rules to have a spare microphone sat in the vehicle for when you are in other countries? What about the hands-free option? Do the FCC outlaw all safety related CB equipment? Here in Europe, different countries have different standards. We do have a common standard, 40 channel FM, but each country may also have additional channels and rules. I can buy a CB which can do any of the European channels and modes. It is up to me to ensure that I only use it as allowed in whatever country I am in. For example, I can only use the UK band (27.60125 - 27.99125MHz) within the UK. If a European country says "hands-free only, then that is how I would have to use it there - even if the required hands-free equipment was illegal for CB use here in England.
