Arrrr,

Thanks, that sorta makes sense, if you were one of the parties you need to
use your call sign more often. :-)

Following on from that...   Are many people using PRS as a 'hobby' radio

I've been carrying the scanner in the car for a couple of months and have
only once or twice heard anything like the CB rag chewing of old on AM CB or
PRS.

Cheers, Chris H.
