UHF CB Radio Frquencies Sorted Numerically into Frquency Sequence
Reserved for Future Expansion
With the introduction of 40 new UHF CB radio channels, added to the existing 40 channels, UHF CB radio has
now been upgraded to 80 channels. This frequency chart below has been numerically sorted by the frequency
numbers, instead of the channel numbers listed in numerical order. The purpose for this chart is to illustrate
the new frequency allocations provided.
The older original 40 channel frequency allocations were of a wide band spacing of 25 KHz (Kilohertz) between
each of the allocated 40 channels available to the band.
With the introduction to an extra 40 channels to the UHF CB band, the new allocated frequencies have been
slotted in between channels 1 through to channel 40.
The new 80 channel frequency allocations are now 12.5 KHz (Kilohertz) between channels 1 through to channel
80. The UHF CB frequencies are now spaced as Narrow Band frequencies.
The upside to these extra channels is, there are more channels to select from to allow for a channel that is not
busy with other people already on the channel.
The downside, narrow band radios sometimes experience interference from adjacent channels that may by
chance be in use at close proximity to each other radio antenna. This interference is called splatter.
