CB Radios to PMR Radios?? was created by Adamski
I have a pair of these Motorola PMR radios which have channels 1 - 8 then 38 sub channels within each one (i hope that makes sense 
):
I understand that the 8 channels on the PMR radios have the following frequencies:
1 - 446.00625 MHz
2 - 446.01875 MHz
3 - 446.03125 MHz
4 - 446.04375 MHz
5 - 446.05625 MHz
6 - 446.06875 MHz
7 - 446.08125 MHz
8 - 446.09375 MHz
and what I am wanting to know is will I be able to communicate with people who have CB radios mounted in there cars, or do they operate on different frequencies and I will only be able to communicate with other PWR radios?
I hope that all makes sense as I dont really have much of a clue about this stuff.

Having read a bit more in to it I think you might be right. Looks like CB works off 27Mhz and PMR work off 446Mhz
.
I know when I went out greenlaning a few weeks ago, once of the cars had a CB radio which could pick up the sound from the PMRs bout couldn't transmit back to the PMRs.

- i think it's a bit out of date though as they say a license is required for cb :S :S
I've got the cb sorted in the Monty now and I'm in the process of getting a second system for the Jimny.
