facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or particles,
such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where
you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

your radio OFF near electrical blasting caps or in a “blasting
area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two way radios.” Obey all
signs and instructions.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility

interference (EMI). To avoid the possibility of electromagnetic
interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio
