  1. Will be doing my vhf dsc licence soon, and been informed that the instruction and test next year will be a two day stint, as opposed to the one day one. But my question is what is the possibility of vhf becoming either a legal requirement or a standard way of communicating on the canals in the near future.
  2. Hi can you help i noticed some search terms dont bring results like, Vhf
  3. Sorry to sound ignorant but what does that mean, "the thing it speaks for itself"
  4. f If you have your vhf marine cert could you use these on them frequencies and also pmr446 without the need of the ham radio operators licence
  5. Hi did it arrive and is it easy to programme up
  6. O Sorry to sound daft, just looked at these and it says 99 channels, in theory could it be programmed easily by me to all vhf marine plus standard eight channels on pmr446 if so it would save having two radios kn board
  7. We use them all the time, especially when cruising with the club

  9. Only had one grumpy stare at me in two years, most people when met witha pleasent hello and slowing down in the middle will acknowledge you. I think i am probably more paranoid than them of wrecking their day. Courtesy is free !
  10. We put the original name on a short piece of wood approx 12" x. 3" and left it in the bilge, then happily renamed the boat on the outside. I need all the luck i can get !
  11. I booked mine for November with seavoice in preston. The guy is really helpful and knowledgeable
  12. I am sorry to ask this but as i dont use internet on the boat i never really took much notice BUT ! A friend in our club wants to go on a long cruise in their narrow boat and asked if i knew what is the best set up for internet connection, ie mobile network, dongle, Please advise

  15. Yeah the cubical was never plumbed so the previous owner carpeted it and stuck a portapotti in it
  16. Any reccomendations i got all the glue up from the carpet that had been glued over the tray but its very marked, does anyone know a good paint to coat the shower tray with please and which diy shop sells it
  17. Tried that, also the shower tray is actually formed as part of the fit out
  18. Hi the shower tray on board was carpeted over, how do i get rid of this awful glue
  19. When the air warms up, it expands. But the physical properties ie the moisture (RH) content cant expand as they are a given density so what happens is they disperse themselves more into the expanded air thus spreading themselves further and lowering the relative humidity. But whilst its worth noting that the humidity is lower the moisture content will stay the same, so once the air cools down again the rh will rise inline with dry bulb temp dropping. 100% rh is when they wet and the dry bulb are of equal temperature, normally chucking it down with rain then.
