Truckers also still use CBRS, which requires no license to operate a station.
[> Anyone, regardless of age, can operate a CB station – except a foreign government, a representative of a foreign government, a federal government agency or someone who has received an FCC a cease-and-desist order that is still in effect. Anyone who is eligible may operate a CB station for personal or business use, in accordance with the rules.
An individual license is not required to operate a CB station and the FCC does not renew formerly issued CB Radio Service licenses;
The FCC service rules for the Citizens Band Radio Service (CBRS) are located in 47 C.F.R. Part 95.](https://www.fcc.gov/wireless/bureau-divisions/mobility-division/citizens-band-radio-service-cbrs)
