Elimination of Licensing

The Federal Communications Commission has ruled that Citizens

Band Radio Service operators are no longer required to obtain an

FCC license to operate their CB equipment. In doing so, the FCC

also permits CB stations to operate without station identification.

Elimination of individual station licenses results in no lessening of

the operating privileges or responsibilities of CB users. An operator

of a CB radio station is still required to comply with the Communica -

tions Act and with the rules of CB Radio Service.

Rules You Should Know

In common with all other CB operators, you must comply with the

general rules prohibiting music, profanity, promotion of illegal activi -

ties, selling of merchandise or services, and blasting others off the

air with illegally amplified transmitters.

Although one-way communications are generally not allowed, oper -

ation of the Wizard for its intended purpose is permitted. Rule 18

(d) provides specific permission to establish one-way communica -

tions concerning highway conditions to assist travelers. An opera -

tor should be monitoring the Wizard at all times.

Since Rule 7 (b) reserves Channel 9 for emergency communica -

tions or travelers assistance, channel 9 may be a good choice as

channel B.

A second channel is provided to extend cover -

age to one other channel that may be used for

information.

Using the "Channel Selector Knob" select a

SECOND channel on which to alternate trans -

missions. Perform the same procedure as out -

lined above, using the "Channel B" assign but -

ton. The same channel should NOT be

assigned to A and B.

To confirm the channels selected, push the display

channel A or display channel B buttons and observe

the channel number displayed. Release the switch

as soon as the channel selection is confirmed.

CB Broadcast Message

After channels have been selected, select the appro -

priate message in Message panel.

Select "Message Frequency" indicated in seconds. If

30 seconds is selected, the timer will countdown 30

seconds after the completion of each transmissioin to

begin a new transmission. If the channel is busy, it

will take a few additional seconds to wait for a break

in the conversation.

NOTE: The faster the traffic, the more frequently the

message should be sent.

To Confirm Complete Setup

Set "MODE" switch to "TEST" position. The system

will perform automatically, governed by the current

settings (including timed response and message

selection). The message will be directed only to the

Wizard speaker, not transmitted to the active chan -

nel. If you do not hear the message when the Wizard

is simulating a transmission, set the speaker switch

to "on" and/or turn the volume switch to a higher set -

ting.

If the settings give the desired results, then proceed.

Otherwise, return to the appropriate previous steps.
