Anyone have an idea what CB channels are in use on the Olympic Penninsula? I've been away from CB for years, but just fell into a nice little Uniden and antenna; swr is very good so I figured I'd carry it in the car. Any help appreciated,

14 is the road channel.

30 is what the PT mill hangs out on.


Various logging ops usually stay low from 1 to 10 from what Ive seen.

"In the United States, channel 19 is the most commonly used for highway use, to the point that some radios even have a dedicated button to bring up channel 19. In some areas of the U.S., different channels are customarily used on highways running North-South versus East-West, and sometimes even for specific roads. Other channels regionally used for this purpose include 10, 17, and 21. Channel 13 is preferred in some areas for marine use and for recreational vehicles." --Wikipedia

Of course 14 is active as chpalmer said. And 9 is the emergency channel; don't know if anyone else still uses it that way though.

fatboy, alot of the drivers out here use 14 like palmer said, i used to use it alot when i worked for a trucking company thank god it's alittle more quit now, 17 is used from bremerton to seattle an down to california, as for 19 i can't remember when ya switch to it, it's been so long but it's used in nevada and every where else, logging companys out here have their own channels they use in the yard and to talk to dispatch an driver to driver, i've heard some in the 30's think 35..
