Dennis Re Automatic Radio Check - not sure how it works where you are, but I believe that you only get a response from the NEAREST Seatow (or BoatUS) station. I prefer to ask others on radio watch to help me gauge the reach of my transmission - which hopefully is farther than the Seatow station next door. - Am I wrong?
