SSB CB Radio

An SSB CB radio is a must-have piece of marine communication equipment for any ship at sea. Its name is short for single sideband citizens band radio, and it is a type of short-wave radio system. With a well-installed SSB CB radio on board, sailors can communicate with one another over long distances with ease, as the device can transmit and receive signals from virtually anywhere in the world.

Compared to standard CB radios, which operate on AM transmissions, SSB CB radios have the added capability of transmitting SSB signals for long-range communication. Nowadays, modern SSB CB radio kits have many useful functions including sending emails and receiving weather reports.

Advantages of SSB CB Radios

An AM SSB CB radio is the most effective communication method used by sailors across the world, from amateur recreational sailors to commercial and even military vessels. Even in tough weather conditions and tricky voyages, an SSB radio kit provides sailors with two-way communication to share information and provide one another with assistance.
