‘How far away are you?’ ‘Can you move that?’ ‘What’s your ETA?’ ‘How’s it goin?’ Across 40 channels of crackling static, clipped and fragmented exchanges of despatch information and never-quite-private but familiar conversations are narrowcast to who ever is listening. Two-way radios are a way of life for many regional communities and industries including families on busy farms, truckies and city couriers.
