: In parts of Indonesia, they using various whistling tones to call someone. Nothing said until the conversation starts. Peter Our shrimp boat operators have their own colourful language on VHF with plenty of variable expletives only heard on marine VHF, and formerly on CB Channel 11 before they had VHF on the boats...way back when. The coastal Geechee language is mixed with Gullah and some Vietnamese dialects of late, adding to the maelstrom on the channel. It's best to keep the children off that channel, especially as the day and tempers flare into thunderstorms, both physical and mental. |
