Next message: Ken Pearce: "lv-ab: Live-aboards in Vancouver BC???"
FWIW, if I were sinking in the mid-Atlantic, I'd use the SSB first; they are
made for long-range com. Seems to me that trying to use VHF to do what a SSB
is specifically made for is "barking up the wrong tree."
You can take a hand-held VHF in the raft, but not the SSB.
