Twelve is kind of limiting. Do you plan on using the SSB to
receive weatherfax? An older radio probably won't do well
in the digital modes like Sailmail or Winlink. There is a pretty
good book with a silly name "Marine SSB for IdiYachts".
It has good coverage of the useful frequencies and what
they are used for. How old is this radio? Does it have tubes

I guess its late 70's early 80's, I was going to put on the other
emergency frequency 2187 or something. I was going to try to get
wefax and email, or sattilite, but these things are not really thaT
IMPORTANT TO ME, a couple of channels to talk to ppl back in nz, and
anything else useful. It looks like a really good quality set with
little use. It dosen't have tubes its not that old

Ps: what are you on about ken?
