Emergency superbowl?

By law it is, even if it doesn't see much use anymore in certain areas of
the country...

I flick past it all the time. Aside from some Mexican skip, no one is ever on
it.

I did a channel 9 relay once..the ****ers at the coast guard station
couldn't understand the concept of a directional antenna, good ears, and an
amp as needed. These two guys were off avon point when they ran out of gas,
and here in Ohio they will write you a big ticket for that on the water.
(rightly so) and they didn't want me to say they were out of gas.

Long story short, the Eagle 515 hooked the boater up to the marine towing
company thru my landline.

We would -NOT- have heard each other without the antenna and amp.

Thanks for making me recollect that, Enzo.

Supposedly however it's never monitored. Recall during the peak of CB Radio
many local Police Departments would regularly monitor channel 9. I was a
member of Central Jersey REACT back in the early-mid seventies which had
almost one-hundred members everyone taking shifts to assure there was 24
hour day coverage.

REACT is alive and well. They monitor in
areas of which they are still active.

Recall during the peak of CB Radio many

local Police Departments would regularly

monitor channel 9.

Many State cops and HP still do, in addition to 19.

coverage.


That's how it works.
