CB Radio Uses

Besides trail runs, what else do people use it for? I mean, what use does it typically have on highways?

And what are the common channels, I know 9 is for emergencies...

 

19 is where its at.. find out where accidents are.. cops.. and general talking to people.. gossip.. to keep yourself awake

 

truckers are pretty funny.. i dont understand them half of the time

 

yeah its mainly for cop findin outs but you can use it to jsut chat it up on trucker channel 19

 

find that around here, truckers just talk and talk and talk.......you couldn't get a word in edgewise if you wanted to. They are like the energizer bunny.......they keep going and going, and going.........

 

Damn I can't wait to tune my radio. Sounds
fun. Lol. When you guys say truckers talk and talk, who r they talking to? Just blindly to keep awake?

 

they talk to each other.. alot of truckers got cb's

 

I think so....I am sure that at times it's pretty lonely, I would like to think that sometimes I could have a trucker personality....but I don't swear enough.

 

yeah they talk to each other. main thing i used my budies for was getting bear reports. and more thatn always i would get a response

 

If you're up around my way, Chanel 1 is what the (french)Canadian so called truckers use.

 

Lol. Wow. Pretty cool. What's the typical range on them? Offroad and on

 

and i think 7 is what the latino truckers use

 

al depends on the antenna and output of the radio if its tuned. an antenna will make all the difference. but its normally 8-15 miles on a good day.

 

there are CBs with weather channels, truckers use codes for cops; like for example here they call local police or sheriffs "Bear" and State Police (because we don't have Highway police) "Fully Grown Bear"
