Doug and Mia:

Most CB rigs have such poor audio, and are so overdriven that phone
patches aren't all that useful. You get so much crap along with the
voice you want to patch, it is difficult to filter enough to make the
patch work effectively.

Couple that with the typical interchange on most CB channels, and there
is little use to use a phone patch on CB. If you're into public service,
you're much better off to just call the person (or public service agency)
and relay the information. They'll get it quicker and with more
intelligence than if they try to decode it all themselves. As someone
that is used to CB, you'd be able to translate all of the garbled,
overdriven and interfered with traffic much more effectively than some
public service agency call center person would, even with a really good
phone patch and parametric filter.
