Abstract

A 2-year study of the performance of Ohio REACT volunteer monitors using Citizens Band (CB) radio to provide a highway and emergency communication service has been completed. The report describes how CB radio is used for aid and information purposes. Measured performance data are used to analyze monitoring coverage in the state. It is shown that in Ohio volunteer CB monitors annually contribute a public service having an economic value of approximately 10.2 million dollars.
