COMMON USES FOR A
CB RADIO
Business Uses
• Truck drivers and delivery per-
sonnel can learn road and traffic
conditions and get assistance in
locating destinations. A CB is
also good company on those
“long hauls.”
• On construction crews, a CB
quickly pays for itself when you
are calling for additional materi-
als or coordinating the activities
of different work crews.
• For security officers, a CB is
more than a convenience — it is
a must for both safety and effi-
ciency.
Personal Uses
• Keep in touch with home while
driving to work, to the store, or to
a social activity. Let your family
know you are tied up in traffic or
that you will stop by the store on
the way home.
• If you are a two-car (or more)
family, CBs are great for com-
municating 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 a
relief it is to be able to radio for
assistance!
• Camping, fishing, and other
sports are more fun with a CB.
Locate a buddy or find out
“what’s cooking” back at camp.
