Ron, Jim, et al, Here in the Med, they take lots of glee when they find a cruising sailor with a marine VHF / HF radio, and no license..
And they take special glee when there is a ham radio on board and no ham radio license, even if the Captain says he is using it solely as a marine HF transceiver.... Just walk the docks in Marmaris, Fethiye, Chios, Samos etc and one can listen to the horror stories... Lee Turkey (I AND my Admiral have ours!!!!!)

Ron Rogers -----Original Message----- On Behalf Of Jim I'm just curious if anyone bothers. I've read a lot of cruising reports and never heard any mention having to produce the license. It doesn't make any difference to me since I've had a radio telephone 1st class (and its followon) since 1962 but I was just curious. _______________________________________________ Liveaboard mailing list [email protected] To adjust your membership settings over the web http://liveaboardonline.com/mailman/listinfo/liveaboard To subscribe send an email to [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] The archives are at http://www.liveaboardonline.com/pipermail/liveaboard/ To search the archives http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] The Mailman Users Guide can be found here http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-member/index.html
