b. Leave the radio OFF whenever the blasting
caps are being put into or removed from the
vehicle.
4. Radio Frequency Energy
To prevent burns or related physical injury from
radio frequency energy, do not operate the
transmitter when anyone outside of the vehicle
is within two feet of the antenna.
5. Liquefied (LP) Gas Powered Vehicles
Portable radio installations in vehicles powered
by liquefied petroleum gas with the LP gas
container in the trunk or other sealed-off space
within the interior of the vehicle must conform to
the National Fire Protection Association
standard (NFPA) 58 requiring that:
a. The space containing the radio equipment
shall be isolated by a seal from the space
containing the LP gas container and its
fittings.
b. Outside filling connections shall be used
for the LP gas container.
c. The LP gas container shall be vented to
the outside of the vehicle.
OPERATING PROCEDURES
Two-way FM radio systems must be operated
in accordance with the rules and regulations of the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
Operators of two-way radio equipment must be
thoroughly familiar with the rules that apply to the
intended type of radio operation. Following these
rules helps to eliminate confusion, assures the most
efficient use of existing radio channels, and results in
a smoothly functioning radio network. When using
this two-way radio remember these rules:
1. It is a violation of FCC rules to interrupt any
distress or emergency message. As the radio
operates in much the same way as a telephone
"party line", always listen to make sure that the
line is clear - that no one else is on the air -
before sending messages. If someone is
sending an emergency message - such as
reporting a fire, or asking for help in an accident
- KEEP OFF THE AIR! Emergency calls have
priority over all other messages.
2. Use of profane or obscene language is
prohibited by Federal law.
