The global citizen band radio market is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2027). The CB radio is a radio waves transceiver that allows people to communicate and share information in any situation. In reality, due to the radio signal being produced by the vehicle's antenna, it is assured in any remote location, and there is no risk of signal scarcity, as there is with mobile phone signal coverage. All of the controls and keys are located on the front panel, and adjust the level, squelch out background noises, search for channels, and read them.

The CB radio cosmos has its language, complete with numbers and special acronyms. The latter is derived in part from the Q alphabet, which is used by radio amateurs, and in part from the NATO alphabet, resulting in a language code with no mysteries for enthusiasts. Truckers have long used CB radios, however, they're also popular with off-roaders, RV owners, bikers, and hobbyists. CBs are useful for keeping groups of people coordinated and in touch during events like "wheeled" gatherings. In reality, most trail rides require CBs as cell phones don't work well in the mountains. Furthermore, although radar detectors have mostly replaced CB as a means of detecting speed traps, some drivers continue to utilise them. 

CB Radios are used in disasters and emergencies and have the potential to save lives. When infrastructure is damaged or unavailable, police, emergency responders, volunteer responders, and others use CBs to communicate. CB radios can help families and emergency responders communicate more effectively. Police also scan Channel 9 on CB for emergency communications such as car accidents, medical catastrophes, and other disasters. Many CB radios also have NOAA weather receivers, allowing you to get essential and timely weather updates and information. The disadvantage of SHTF CB radios is their restricted range. CB radios are limited to 4 watts by regulation, giving a somewhat short range.
