"Sunsail 29 this is QHM, you sound like you've got your head in a bucket. Please try to speak more clearly sir."

Come in No 29 your time is up. I did not think that Sunsailors knew what radios are. I expect he thought it was a Playstation with rubbish graphics.

Judging by the sea state on Saturday maybe he actually had his head in a bucket.

Probably had his head in a bucket, calling for Bill or Hughey

I thought the guy who called QHM for a radio check on Saturday was chancing his arm, but he got a suprisingly polite response

Before someone else gets this in, the publishing of any information transmitted by VHF is illegal & could land YBW with a fine. Any bets on how long before this thread vanishes??!!

[/ QUOTE ] Of course they do - its the gadget that fills the space between their ears with the inane sounds that pass for modern 'music'.

Probably gave them a bit of a shock when it answered back? /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
