Fortunately, the MCA still have the warning on their site!!!!
They really did change the web site! it was there when I posted the link
... honestly!!



If you read it you will see that they feel talking on the VHF might
distract from what? RADAR thats what. Why do you think they want you
to focus on RADAR?

I think you might of missed the part were I said I only run hooked up
in fog were I know every inch of the water way by radar. That make it
alot easier to comfirm who you are seeing on radar and talking to via
VHF.

And the only language problems here in Texas and LA is only a problem
with Vietnam shrimpers and it's OK to run them down, infact the Texas
shrimpers encourage it and will usually give you a few pounds of
shrimp for the effort ;0).
