Subject: Huh? Diesel engines don't last 800 hours before major repairs??
From: (JAXAshby) Date: 08/08/2004 17:27 Pacific Standard Time Message-id: shen, the radio treaty of 1919 or 1920 specifically included the requirement that all commercial radio stations broadcast their call letters, their frequency and city every ten minutes they were on the air. This was done specifically as an aid to navigation for ships at sea and aircraft in the air (when it would come about that aircraft would be making long distance flights). specifically for navigation, shen, specifically. Jax, specifically, that's terryific. Problem is that all those inland radio stations have a problem with "coastal refraction" which makes their use doubtful as regards accuracy. Course, there were a number of other possible errors also, which, once again, removed RDF from the cure-all category, especially for a Novice, such as yourself. Shen |

Haven't got a clue how that bit of nonsense relates, other than it's a "jaxism" for "I don't have an intelligent answer". S'ok jax we don't expect answers from you, much less intelligent or knowledgeable ones .... RDF on boats was probably before your time and undoubtably beyond your abilities. Shen |
