I prefer in English. There are other operators listening and so they can understand the conversation. I hear a lot of Russian speaking operators on some fm birds. That way you don't know if they are pirates or amateurs. I don't understand a callsign in Russian and I don't know what they are talking about. 73 Eric -- ON4HF. -- Eric Knaps Waterstraat 30 B-3980 Tessenderlo Belgium Tel. +32472985876 (mobile) http://www.on4hf.be _______________________________________________ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org.
