RE: [RCSE] A pet Peeve

In today’s world of synth radios and exchangeable TX modules, this practice is not reliable either. The only certain way to determine what channel someone is on is to scan the frequencies. People forget to put their pin on the board when they change modules, like wise it is easy to forget to change your flag. There is no substitute for good frequency control at any gathering via an impound and scanners.   JD   Endless Mountain Models http://www.scalesoaring.com email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]   -----Original Message----- From: Mike Remus [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 23, 2005 8:28 AM To: soaring@airage.com Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [RCSE] A pet Peeve   What ever happened to the days when All flyers displayed their frequency channels on their radio transmitters? It is a courtesy to the other flyers to display you're channel on you're Tx while flying.  Especially when you know you are sharing a channel!  Don't you wonder why you're radio come in the box with you're channel marker included? The naked eye can still be a good frequency scanner.  :~) When you all come to the Bob Steele Memorial contest in Fort Wayne,  It is required that you display you're channel.  We will furnish tape and a marker for those who forget. Be proud of your channel. :~)   Mike Remus LOFT Glider Club Fort Wayne IN LSF Level 5 #112 Remember; Think small.  Big ideas upset others!
