The City Council of the City of Maroa finds that improper operation of citizens band radios constitutes a nuisance because the radios interfere with the operation of other electronic devices within the municipality and may interfere with emergency and police communications.

It is unlawful for a CB station transmitter to exceed the following power output values under any condition:
A. 
A AM (A3): four watts (carrier power).
B.

It is unlawful to operate any CB transmitter that is not certificated by the Federal Communications Commission. It is further unlawful to operate any CB transmitter to which internal modifications have been made.
It is unlawful to attach a power amplifier or any other device capable of amplifying a signal to a CB transmitter. External radio frequency (RF) power amplifiers, linears or linear amplifiers are prohibited.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. I)]
It is unlawful to install or operate a fixed antenna the height of which is higher than 18.3 meters (60 feet) above the ground or more than 6.1 meters (20 feet) higher than the highest point on the structure on which it is mounted, whichever is higher.
