In personal experience with "Monsters" like shown above. They CAN receive, but there is no SELECTIVITY regarding the reception. The noise level from the "crosstalk effect" makes it less useful for reception.

But if you had 40-other CB radios for RX - tuned to the other channels with their squelch and RF Gains set properly for RX (OR fewer with Scan modes can be used) - you can easily set up a wide band Base to Mobile network. Each mobile can be assigned a channel and the Base simply broadcasts to all.

It's similar to spread spectrum and trunk systems used now. Only coded-squelch and Digital ID and encryption systems used now, makes this seem archaic.

In some countries, this is being used now.
