Review title: Dated and spotty
Product review: Written from a largely European (British) perspective, the book is dated in its discussion of equipment and usage. While its discussion of wave propagation and other technical matters is interesting and well presented, the book lacks a "meat and potatoes" approach to actual radio usage. Although etiquette is covered, there is practically no discussion of how to monitor and initiate calls, no presentation of frequency applications nor details of weatherfax and e-mail. The book is simply not a good source for one desiring to know how to operate a marine SSB to one's advantage.
