Most likely your "programmable radio" is an FM, UHF or VHF band transceiver (but knowing more specifically would certainly assist us in quashing your dreams  ).
Technically, that kind of transceiver isn't capable of transmitting using AM modulation on CB frequencies. Legally, you can only transmit in the CB band on a transceiver that has been type accepted for such use (and your radio is almost certainly not). This is true even in the exotic location of Yorba Linda, California. |

Like n9emz said...what type of radio do you have ! I could see it being done with an HF transceiver, You need a radio that will transmit as well as receive in order for it to work.
hope this helps.
And if ever you come back with your radio model ,you may get some ham's telling you to use it as a boat anchor or a door stopper,don't mind them,there just trying to show that there superior to you...lol.
The CB Guy is the one driving the Motorcycle.....the rest of them !......well........... you figure it out.

What kind of "programmable radio" do you have?
What frequency range does it cover?
What modes will it do?
Depending upon the answers to any and all of the above could determine as to whether or not you can or can not program "a CB frequency" into it. As far as being able to "talk to people over it", while that depends on several other factors as well.
If, and that may be a BIG "if", you can and are able to legally program those CB frequencies into it and there are others in close vicinity to you that have and use CB radios, or other modified equipment (legal or not), to transmit and receive in those frequencies then, YES, you may even be able to "talk to people over it".

If you have the IC-21, a UHF handheld radio with TX/RX range 440-470MHz, then your answer is a great big NO!!!
You can not program CB frequencies (26-27MHz) into it.

Famous does not necessarily equate with "good".

Wonder what Nixon's CB "handle" was? Yep, he was a CB'er too. So was Betty Ford, "First Mama" or something like that, reportedly.
