Technical FAQs 4

Should you set up a home base station?

Setting up a home base station for your CB radio can provide several benefits. You can stay connected with friends and family, monitor emergency channels, and be better prepared for any situation. While it might seem daunting, setting up a CB base station is actually a simple and straightforward process.

How does a base station work?

Depending on the size of base station and its traffic, the base station may also have another sources of power such as a diesel generator, wind turbine or biofuels. The base station is a transceiver and acts as an interface between a mobile station and network using microwave radio communication.

How much power does a base station have?

Maximum base station power is limited to 38 dBm output power for Medium-Range base stations, 24 dBm output power for Local Area base stations, and to 20 dBm for Home base stations. This power is defined per antenna and carrier, except for home base stations, where the power over all antennas (up to four) is counted.

How does a portable power station work?

Tying a portable power station directly into your home’s electrical system means less downtime in a storm. An electrician wires a secondary switch box near the main circuit panel, allowing you to flip to battery power when the grid is down.
