Pre-Feb '71 most of the London Airways sectors had 2 voices! The 'D-Man' (Procedural) and the 'Radar Man', the latter being subservient (and a lower grade). Extensive use was made of intercom to agree a course of action, or otherwise.......! At London (Post-Uxbridge) the D-Man was at West Drayton and the Radar Man at Southern ATCC, Heathrow (Next to Block Number 1.....!)
