  17. Wefalck, the radio wasn't used to get orders for the discharge port as she called at Falmouth for orders the day before she was wrecked! Keith, it's nice to hear that you South Saxons are finally embracing the beach culture. If you like, we'll put on the fireworks a bit earlier next year, then we can all get an early night! John
  18. I'm not sure exactly what they used the radio for Trevor. She may well have carried a radio operator as a training ship, but she certainly didn't when she was under Finnish ownership. I believe the range of the radio was only about 300 miles. John
