  4. really respect the captains of these massive ships - used to enjoy watching the big ships sailing down the Rhine in .NL - more amusing was the Germany private boat/yacht owners at Leischendam who always failed so badly at navigating the lock there :) I live near the sea in South West England these days - will have to take a radio down to the coast and see what I can hear - nothing like the big ships from Hoek van Holland or Amsterdam, but still some nice traffic coming in out to France.

  5. I love the commentary, it reminds me of Alfie Noakes and storys from the North. I dare say more of Derek and Clives commentary could apply to Colin's request. :D

  14. Received mine whilst driving along in my Mazda Bongo - was suprised given the speed i was doing on the motorway I could hear it, but sure enough came blasting thru ! Naturally just left the phone. Interesting stuff as ever. Being playing with APRS <-> SMS this weekend, wonder if you done any vids on APRS ?

  15. I shall listen on on 11m and see what local activity there is down in Bournemouth ! When I used to commute between Bournemouth and Romsey there was a good amount of activity on CB during commute times and when the skip kicked it the whole of Europe was available on 10W!

  16. How about taking along a bit of sand paper, clean a little bit of the the rail up and clip it onto your CB :D NVIS++ :D (inspired by the fencetenna) P.S. Yes, big railway nerd here as well, was very interesting to see about the level crossing and electronics.

  17. short answer, yes. long answer - look at where the licence fee is going, it is not the development and maintenance of radio thats for sure !
