Helnl Radio News Service
7/10/46
As set forth In the current issue of Long Lines Magazine, the rates for a three minute general service message within the area served by the St. Louis radiotelephone range from thirty to forty cents depending on the location of the land telephone. The charge for a one minute, two-way dispatch call is fifteen cents.
The radio equipment on the vehicle if furnished by the company costs $15 a month and an installation charge of $25 applies.
The general mobile radiotelephone service will operate
like this:
Calls to and from vehicles will be handled by mobile service operators. The conversations will travel part way by telephone wire and part way by radio. For example, a man at his desk in St. Louis who wants to talk to the occupant of a certain car or truck will lift his telephone receiver and dial or ask for long distance. He will then ask for the mobile service operator, to whom he will give the telephone number of the vehicle.
The operator will send over the channel a signal which selects the particular mobile station desired and causes a bell to ring and a light to go on in the car or truck. When the driver sees or hears his signal he will answer his telephone. Hie voice will travel by radio to the nearest receiving station and thence by telephone wire back to the caller.
