Remote Control of Lights via CB radio signal ??

seems that I could key up a cb rig on a quiet channel , which would break

be able to key some type of relay that would then turn my deck lights on and
off.


Keep in mind we're at a minimum in the sunspot cycle, and 27MHz is
"relatively" quiet for now. When the upper HF bands start to open up as
the cycle starts rising, you would have a very difficult time finding a
"quiet" channel many hours of the day, so you could have your lights
flashing on and off quite out of your control. How about GMRS with a
privacy code or tone control instead of CB?
