If the law is taken literally, then yes, any state that bans "hand held
devices", would include CB radios.
But I believe most cops would not enforce that aspect of the law.

But would that law include hand held units that are not attached to the
vehicle? Some cops may see those as they see cell phones.

That's an argument that would have to be settled in a court of law.
True, the FCC authorizes the use of CB radio. But states, certainly can
restrict their use in a vehicle. That does not deny the use of them by any
means. You just can't yack while driving.

BTW lawmakers, take a good close look at some expensive ham radio equipment
for mobile use. What's that? You don't see that dial pad on the radio?
Guess what dude? That hammy can make phone calls with his radio just the
same as any cell phone.

You'd be pretty hard pressed to find an actual working auto patch anymore.
There are none in Baltimore as the misfits ruined it for everybody.

Well that's boston for ya. It's screwed up in every respect.
In cincinnati, auto patch still thrives well because of the people that run
it.
although it is probably not used as much since cell phones are in wide use.

It usually isn't the misfits who ruin that stuff. Its the authorities
inability to tell the difference between misfits and normal people. "they
are quick to throw everybody into the same "misfit bag".
