Citizens Band.

Generally referring to the 2 way radio system working on 27Mhz, which requires no exam or certification, for anyone to use.

It was only introduced (begrudgingly) in the UK in 1981 and worked on a different set of 40 channels, in the 27Mhz band, separate from Europe and the USA.

The UK government wanted to call it OC (Open Channel), but everyone still wanted to call it CB, as it had been in the states since WWII.

You no longer need a licence to operate CB in the UK.
