E) HOW TO TRANSMIT OR RECEIVE A MESSAGE:

Now that you have read the manual, make sure that your CB Radio is ready

for use (i.e. check that your antenna is connected).

Choose your channel (19, 27).

Choose your mode (AM/FM) which must be the same as that of your corre-

spondent.

Press the «push-to-talk» switch and announce your message «Attention sta-

tions, transmission testing» which will allow you to check the clearness and the

power of your signal. Release the switch and wait for a reply. You should

receive a reply like, «Strong and clear».

If you use a calling channel (19, 27) and you have established communication

with someone, it is common practice to choose another available channel so

as not to block the calling channel.

Below you will find some of the most frequently used CB radio expressions.
