radio operates in much the same way as a telephone
"party line" therefore always listen to make sure that
the line is clear--that no one else is on the air--before
sending any messages. If someone is sending an
emergency message--such as reporting a fire or
asking for help in an accident--KEEP OFF THE AIR!
2. Use of profane or obscene language is prohibited by
Federal Law.
3. It is against the law to send false call letters or a false
distress or emergency message.
4. The FCC requires that conversations be brief and
confined to business. To save time, use coded mes-
sages whenever possible.
5. Using the radio to send personal messages (except
in an emergency) is a violation of FCC rules. Only
those messages essential for the business operation
may be sent.
6. It is against the Federal law to repeat or otherwise
make known anything overheard on the radio. Con-
versations between others sharing a communica-
tions channel must be regarded as confidential.
7. The FCC also requires that the caller be identified at
certain specific times by means of call letters. Refer
to the rules that apply to the particular type of opera-
tion for the proper procedure.
8. No changes or adjustment shall be made to the
equipment except by an authorized or certified elec-
tronic technician.
