Radio Shack TRC-232 - Manual (Page 28)

28
• If you are a two-car (or more) family, CB radios are great
for communicating with family members while they are in
their cars.
• Contact friends or neighbors — find out “what’s happening”
or plan a get-together.
• Ever have car trouble or run out of gas on the highway?
What an assurance it is to be able to radio for assistance!
• Camping, fishing, and other sports are more fun with a CB
radio. Locate a buddy or find out “what’s cooking” back at
camp.
TRANSMISSION COURTESY
• Wait for a pause in someone else’s transmission before
you ask for a break.
• If you do not receive an answer to your call after a second
attempt, sign off and wait several minutes before trying
again.
• Do not hold down the PTT button when you are not talking.
(This is called dead keying.)
• Assist callers with directions, information about road condi-
tions, and any other reasonable requests.
