Hey, it's just a NUMBER!
As long as you use the SAME NUMBER all weekend, it really doesn't matter
much which one you use.

My question (above) was asked in an incredulous tone that perhaps
doesn't come across in e-mail. What I should have said was "if
you adopt what [the poster] says, a multi-op station would have
to change its CK every time a new operator took over, and this is
unrealistic".
Sigh,

I think off the coast of Lampedusa Island IG9 they have a special kind of
salt water that gives 20 - 30 dB instead of 10.
Maybe someone can go there and run some tests on the water?
