 Rule 13 - Illegal Communications 
 
 {A} You must NOT use a CB station- 
      [1] in connection with activity which is against federal, state or 
 local law; 
      [2] to transmit obscene, indecent or profane words, language or 
 meaning; 
      [3] to interfere intentionally with the communications of another CB 
 station; 
      [4] to transmit one-way communications, EXCEPT for emergency 
 communications, traveler assistance, brief tests (radio checks) or voice 
 paging; 
      [5] to advertise or solicit the sale of any goods or services; 
      [6] to transmit music, whistling, sound effects or any material to 
 amuse or entertain; 
      [7] to transmit any sound effect solely to attract attention; 
      [8] to transmit the word "MAYDAY" or use any other international 
 distress signal, EXCEPT when your station is located in a ship, aircraft 
 or other vehicle which is threatened with GRAVE AND IMMINENT danger and 
 you are requesting IMMEDIATE assistance. 
       [9] to communicate with, or ATTEMPT to communicate with, any CB 
 station more than 155.3 miles (250 kilometers) away 
      [10] to advertise a political candidate or political campaign (You 
 may use your CB radio for the business or organizational aspects of a 
 campaign, if you follow all other applicable rules); 
      [11] to communicate with stations in other countries, except 
 stations in Canada (on General Radio Service). 
      [12] to transmit a false or deceptive communication. 
 {B} You must not use a CB station to transmit communications intended for 
 live or delayed rebroadcast on radio or television.  You may use your CB 
 station to gather news items or to prepare programs. 
 
 
 
 Rule 25 - Modifications to Transmitters 
 
 {A} You must not make or have any one else make any internal modification 
 to your CB transmitter. 
 {B} Internal modification does NOT include: 
      [1] Repair, or servicing of a CB station transmitter; or 
      [2] Changing plug-in modules which were type-accepted as part of 
 your CB transmitter 
 {C} You must not operate a CB transmitter which has been modified by 
 anyone in any way, including modification to operate on unauthorized 
 frequencies or with illegal power. 
 
 
 Not so sure they're 100% illegal: 
 
 1. It doesn't take internal modifications to transmit a roger beep on a CB 
 radio. External electronics can accomplish this. Microphones do not have 
 to be type accepted and can include this circuitry. 
 
 2. Roger beeps used for their intended purpose (that is, signaling the end 
 of a transmission) are not used "simply to attract attention", are not 
 intended to entertain, and do not violate any part of either of these 
 sections. 
 
 You might want to rethink some of your statements before you put them out 
 here, not-not-Jorge. In this case, you're not 100% correct.
