As per the law you cannot sell an antenna that does not have certain insulating (electrical) properties on the antenna itself for the CB band. That does not mean you cannot use such an antenna, it just means the antenna cannot be sold for such use. Manufacturers get around this by advertising the antenna as being for HAM radio or some form of commercial radio. It is not illegal to use the antenna for the CB band, it is just illegal to sell it specifically for CB radio.

How many aluminum CB antennas currently specifically advertise as being for CB use?
