Owner's Manual

signals such as "ten codes"
are not considered codes or
coded messages. You may
transmit two-way plain language
communications only to other
CB stations, to units of your
own CB station or to authorized
government stations on CB
frequencies about-
( 1) Your personal or business
activities or those of members of
your immediate family living in
your household;
(2) Emergencies (see CB
Rule 18, § 95.418);
(3) Traveler assistance (see
CB Rule 18, § 95.418); or
( 4) Civil defense activities
in connection with official tests
or drills conducted by, or actual
emergencies announced by,
the civil defense agency with
authority over the area in which
your station is located.
(b) You may use your CB
station to transmit a tone signal
only when the signal is used
to make contact or to continue
communications. (Examples
of circuits using these signals
are tone operated squelch and
selective calling circuits.) If
the signal is an audible tone,
it must last no longer than 15
seconds at one time. If the signal
is a subaudible tone, it may be
transmitted continuously only as
long as you are talking.
(c) You may use your CB
station to transmit one-way
communications (messages which
are not intended to establish
communications between two or
more particular CB stations) only
for emergency communications,
traveler assistance, brief tests
(radio checks) or voice paging.
