  §  95.181   Permissible communications.

   (a) A station operator for an individual who is licensed in the GMRS
   (other than an employee of that individual) may communicate two-way
   voice messages concerning the licensee's personal or business
   activities (see § 95.179).

   (b) [Reserved]

   (c) A station operator for any entity other than an individual licensed
   in the GMRS may communicate two-way voice messages concerning the
   licensee's business activities (see § 95.179). An employee for an entity
   other than an individual licensed in the GMRS may, as a station
   operator, communicate two-way voice messages while acting within the
   scope of his/her employment.

   (d) A station operator for any GMRS licensee may communicate two-way
   voice messages concerning:

   (1) Emergencies (see § 95.143);

   (2) Rendering assistance to a motorist; and

   (3) Civil defense drills, if the responsible agency requests
   assistance.

   (e) All messages must be in plain language (without codes or hidden
   meanings). They may be in a foreign language, except for call signs
   (see § 95.119).

   (f) A station operator may communicate tone messages for purposes of
   identification or transmitter control in a control link.

   (g) A station operator may communicate a selective calling tone or tone
   operated squelch only in conjunction with a voice communication. If the
   tone is subaudible (300 Hertz or less) it may be communicated during
   the entire voice message. If the tone is audible (more than 300 Hertz)
   it may be communicated for no more than 15 seconds at a time.

   (h) A station operator may communicate a one-way voice page to a paging
   receiver. A selective calling tone or tone operated squelch may be used
   in conjunction with a voice page, as prescribed in paragraph (g) of
   this section. A station operator may not communicate a tone-only page
   (tones communicated in order to find, summon or notify someone).
