-
- 30. A mobile radio (that is one that is mobile, portable,
- or airborne) has priority over any other type of radio station
- AND other forms of telecommunications. This is true in all radio
- services. Fixed station operators must recognize that a call
- from a mobile station takes precedence over telephone calls,
- personal conversations, and other activities. Respond promptly
- to any call from a mobile station -- even if it is to advise the
- caller to standby.
- In conclusion, these few rules and suggestions are intended
- to help you become a better operator -- whether Public Safety or
- Amateur Radio. Analyze your present operating methods and try
- to polish each element so your participation in radio communica-
- tions is professional and worthwhile. Your Net Control Station
- operator may have the final authority but good, clean operating
- methods and procedures almost make a net run without an NCS.
