There will probably an awfull lof of second hand CB equipment for sale for near to nothing (27MHz). And for these short distances you could work with small antenna's.
Disadvantage: it is half duplex.

Hi Volhout,

Regarding regulations, do you or anyone else know if there are any specific rules for using automatic, computer-driven responses on CB radio?

Let me explain my project plan to provide more context:

I plan to set up a base station that listens for the call sign or phrase "AI Responder." When the system detects this from a local radio user, it will extract the question, process it using a large language model (LLM) to generate a response, convert the response into speech using a text-to-speech (TTS) generator, and then transmit the audio response over the radio.

For example:

   User A keys up and asks, "AI Responder, what's the capital of England?"
   The AI-driven base station detects the call, generates an answer, and responds with something like:
   "AI Responder to User A: The capital of England is London."

I can implement safeguards to ensure responses are short, under a specific character limit, and filtered to avoid any inappropriate or illegal content.
Additionally, the system would have minimal latency since both TTS generation and LLM inference would be performed locally on my machine, ensuring quick responses.

Let me know if you're aware of any regulations that might apply to such a setup.
