Just to confuse the Spanish say “cambio“ instead of “over” on the VHF. “Cambio“ google translates as “change“ so we go around in circles asking what channel they want us to change to.

Just to confuse the English say "over" instead of "cambio" on the VHF. "Over" google translates as "a sequence of six balls bowled by a bowler from one end of the pitch, after which another bowler takes over from the other end. "
