Iv looked everywhere for a Booster for my CB and i can't find one.. I know there illegal but i want one....... where can i find it and about how much would one be ....................

 

try a truck stop

 

I doubt they would have one at a truck stop. I would try ebay or something. I belive it is like a 10,000 dollar fine or something if you caught using one.

 

one of them around here sold them but I won't say where then

 

why are they so illegal??

 

Because CB part of the radio spectrum that is "regulated" by the FCC, and limited to 4 watts output. CB is 11 meters, and most linears tend to splatter and interfer with other frequencies. That's why FRS radios do not have removable antennas as well. They just gave a guy here in Cali a 5 year jail sentence, $10k fine and took his radio equipment for operating outside the legal regulated requirements.

 

Google "CB amplifiers" You will have a ton to choose from. I would suggest the Texas Star amps for a beginner. They are easy to set up and cheap. Just make sure you turn your radio down to about a 2 watt dead key when using it or you will let the smoke out of it

 

Cause you can order McDonalds with them when you're miles away from McDonalds..

 

Well boy's i'll tell ya what your problems is on that subject ...
1. if you lived here in the southern states , you wouldn have to worry abot the FCC doing anything
2. if you have linears, an all that here and the rule that is simple an true
if you have 1 here dont blast through the airwaves during the night , = Justice of the peace.

 

I'm in South Jersey and local CB shop has tons of them on display and for sale. You can pick them up at ANY and I mean ANY truck stop....

Roll in with your cb (IF YOUR DRIVING A CAR STAY THE HELL OUT OF THE PRO DRIVERS PARKING LOT) and say you are a 4 wheeler looking for a small cb amp. Just try that a few times or google like others have suggested. Everyone runs them, easy to install and if you grab a small one you will be good to go. Now if you run with a 2000+ amp you might run into some legal issues.

 

Not really Most of them has a big meco box that is 5000 watts or more. in this town you can run as many wattage as you want like i said just have common sense when to turn it on an run it

 

Your town or my town has nothing to do with what you can and can't run. FCC is federal and it caps all towns or states.

 

The FCC does not come to a persons house any more the only people that will come is the local police ...thats it ...FCC made it clear that they will not fool with any cb related cases at all ...

 

Oh well I'm glad you cleared that up for everyone.

How about some factual base information, documentation, links to new articles?

 

the truckstop ones are incoming signal boosters
