    CB is 27 mHZ (Megahertz), mostly AM, and is unregulated as far as licensing (there are regulations as to frequencies, type of emmission and power level). For practical purposes, CB is part of the "HF" portion of the band. (11 meters)

    Ham radio is a whole slew of frequencies, "below" and "above" CB in the HF portion, extending up into VHF, UHF and even low microwave. Our (ham) HF frequencies are mostly used on Single Side Band (SSB), VHF/UHF is mostly FM (although I've used SSB).

    Biggest difference - Ham requires a license to operate.

    I have your quote on my license plate frame!
