3. If there is no response, select an active channel and ask that party
to relay your emergency broadcast on Channel 9.
All channels except Channel 9 may be used for normal
communication. The FCC reserves Channel 9 for emergencies
involving the immediate safety of individuals or protection
of property. Use Channel 9 to render assistance to a motorist.
This is an FCC rule and applies to all CB radio operators.
HOW IT WORKS
The CB, scanner, and weather features work together without having to
change from one feature to another. For example, you can have CB active,
Police enabled, and Weather Alert activated. Weather alerts have priority
over CB and scanner operations, so if a weather alert is detected, a
special alert tone sounds when you are not transmitting. You can also set
whether CB or Scanner audio has priority through the menus (see page
23).
