Another CB Radio Hub! Time {for another|for an additional|for one more} Hub about CB radios! {I love|I like|I really like} CB radios, {and you|and also you} do too you {just|simply} {don't realize|do not realize|do not understand} it {yet|but} - That's all. Now {let us|allow us to} go over the {features|options} of the RadioShack TRC-241 Handheld CB Radio. Top Keys - On the face of the radio, there are {five|5} buttons {underneath|beneath} the LCD {screen|display|display screen} (which {we will|we are going to|we'll} go over later). Starting on the left {side|aspect|facet}, the buttons are H/L, BEEP; Light; LOCK/ALERT OFF; CB/WX and CH9/19, SCAN. The H/L means High or Low {power|energy}. Turn it to Low {power|energy} by {pressing|urgent} this button {once|as soon as}, and return to {high|excessive} {power|energy} by {pressing|urgent} it {again|once more}. Hold down this button for {3|three} seconds and the beep will {turn|flip} off {when you|if you|once you|whenever you|while you} press down buttons. {3|Three} {more|extra} seconds turns the beep {back|again} on. {The light|The sunshine} button is {obvious|apparent} - it turns on two greenish lights at {the bottom|the underside} of the {screen|display|display screen} {for use|to be used} {in the dark|at midnight|at nighttime|at the hours of darkness|in the dead of night}.
When the LOCK/ALERT OFF button is held down {for three|for 3} seconds, it acts as a hold button, locking the keys. Pressing it {once|as soon as} turns on and off the weather alert, {so that|in order that} if {there is|there may be|there's} nasty weather headed your {direction|course|path|route} {it will|it can|it is going to|it should|it would|it'll|it's going to} {automatically|mechanically|robotically|routinely} go to the weather station for you. The CB/WX key flips {back|again} and forth between {the standard|the usual} {40|forty} CB channels and 7 weather channels. When the WX {side|aspect|facet} is engaged {it will|it can|it is going to|it should|it would|it'll|it's going to} {automatically|mechanically|robotically|routinely} scan and {find|discover} the weather station {for your|in your|on your|to your} {area|space}. Side Keys - The left {side|aspect|facet} of the radio {houses|homes} three buttons. PTT (Push {To talk|To speak}), Channel Up and Channel Down. The PTT button is {pretty|fairly} self explanitory - you push and hold down the button {to talk|to speak} to {other|different} CB {users|customers}. Top - On {the top|the highest} of the CB radio is the Antenna Jack, Squelch, Volume/Power, and Mic and Speaker inputs. The second I stick {the end|the tip|the top} of the antenna out of the {car|automobile|automotive} window on the {highway|freeway} I hear {people|folks|individuals} {talking|speaking}.
Obviously, holding a CB radio out of a {car|automobile|automotive} window going 65mph {while|whereas} driving, {And try|And check out|And take a look at} {to talk|to speak} ({let alone|not to mention} hear {talking|speaking} over {all the|all of the} wind noise) at {the same|the identical} time {is not|is just not|isn't|just isn't|shouldn't be|will not be} very {bright|brilliant|shiny|vibrant|vivid}. PhoneIs It Worth Upgrading To The iPhone 5? Is It Better Than 4S / {4|four} / 3GS? {Sign in|Check in|Register|Sign up} or {sign up|enroll|join} and {post|publish|put up|submit} {using|utilizing} a HubPages Network account. {0|Zero} of 8192 characters usedPost CommentNo HTML is allowed in {comments|feedback}, {but|however} URLs {will be|can be|might be|shall be|will likely be|will probably be} hyperlinked.

Now adays {you can|you may|you possibly can|you'll be able to} {on occasion|every now and then|every so often|from time to time|now and again|occasionally|once in a while} {find|discover} used CB hand helds at yard {sales|gross sales} dirt {cheap|low cost|low-cost} as so few {people|folks|individuals} use them anymore ! They {were|had been|have been} {real|actual} battery eaters, {as the|because the} 5 watt {units|items|models} took 10 AA batteries, {amateur|beginner|newbie|novice} radio operators would {buy|purchase} used CB hand helds {just|simply} {to convert|to transform} them to 10 meters ! Just {something|one thing} {to think about|to consider} ! {I have|I've} owned {several|a number of} CB handhelds, all I can say is save your {money|cash} ! {Want a|Desire a|Need a} hand held with {real|actual} {coverage|protection} plus the weather band ? I do {wish|want} {one day|at some point|in the future|someday|sooner or later} that there {will be|can be|might be|shall be|will likely be|will probably be} a {40|forty} channel CB hand held that operates not {only|solely} AM {but also|but additionally|but in addition} SSB, {you would|you'd|you'll} have a {greater|better|higher|larger} {range|vary} ! I {once|as soon as} had {a 10|a ten} meter SSB hand held {called|known as|referred to as} {the 10|the ten} meter DX {handy|helpful|useful}({amateur|beginner|newbie|novice} radio) and with the radio's whip antenna,I {worked|labored} stations {all over the|all around the|everywhere in the} U.S.,even Hawaii and {once|as soon as} Japan {using|utilizing} {only|solely} 2 watts ! I'm glad you {enjoyed|loved} it. This {is a great|is a good|is a superb} CB radio. Great Hub. Thanks for all {the info|the data|the information}. I'm on my {way to|approach to|method to|option to|solution to|strategy to|technique to} Radio Shack now! {You should|It is best to|It's best to|You must|You need to} get one! This one is {great|nice}. Very {nice|good}, informative hub. {I really|I actually} {want a|desire a|need a} CB now!
{This is|That is} {a problem|an issue} for us when {building|constructing} our rammed earth {walls|partitions}. {There are lots of|There are many} {ideas|concepts|ideas} about {ways|methods} to reinforce the {strength|energy|power} of rammed earth {walls|partitions} in {conventional|standard|typical} rammed earth {house|home} {building|constructing}. But our {situation|scenario|state of affairs} is {different|completely different|totally different}. When {preparing|getting ready|making ready} for an emergency like a catastrophic bushfire, it {makes sense|is sensible|is smart} {to prepare|to arrange|to organize} for the worst case {scenario|situation|state of affairs}. Best case {obviously|clearly} is there {won't|will not} be {a fire|a fireplace|a hearth}. {One of the|One of many} worst {possible|attainable|doable|potential} outcomes is that the door to the rammed earth {section|part} surrounding the underground firebunker, {becomes|turns into} blocked or compromised. {The main|The primary|The principle} entry door {will be|can be|might be|shall be|will likely be|will probably be} {facing|dealing with|going through} our {home|dwelling|house|residence}. If the {house|home} burns and collapses, it {could|may|might} in {theory|concept|idea|principle} fall and block the doorway. {Not likely|Not going|Unlikely}, {but|however} {possible|attainable|doable|potential}. A {hot|scorching|sizzling} {metal|metallic|steel} {house|home} {frame|body}, roof and burning debris {could|may|might} {prove|show} problematic. So {we need|we want|we'd like} {to be able to|to have the ability to} dig our {way|approach|manner|means|method} out, if {necessary|crucial|essential|mandatory|needed|obligatory|vital}. We keep a shovel {inside the|contained in the} {fire|fireplace|hearth} bunker, so {we have|now we have|we have now|we now have|we've|we've got} the {tool|device|instrument|software}.
