i know everyone uses gps. enough said.

but i also know that a lot of cruisers (most ? all ? all of the smart
ones ?!) use alternate methods of finding their position and
navigating to both keep their skills current in case of emergency, to
double check the gps equipment, etc, etc. some use celestial
navigation, everyone uses piloting skills, and on and on.

but do you still use RDF ?

if so, could you talk a little about what equipment you keep on board
for it ?

most of the RDF equipment i've seen looks really old!

I thought the transmitters were switched off years ago.
