A previous post on using CB's in an emergency has me thinking. I inherited a CB with Single Side Band (SSB) capabilities, but have never used SSB.
I'm a ham, and have used CB's since they also required licenses. Are there common practices/procedures/protocols/courtesies for broadcasting on SSB other than the "Breaker 19" CB type talk?
Any other hints and tips for using SSB would also be appreciated.
Thanks.

I don't know anybody who runs SSB anymore. I did a quick search and could only find two rigs on the market that offer SSB. But back in the day, it was mostly used by CB "DX'ers" who sprinkled Q-codes with the usual CB-speak.
