As for sailing through FIR's without noticing that nobody appears to be talking to you (because you screwed up or misheard a frequency change), then my suggestion is that you go and get re-trained. You can't have it both ways - you complain that the radios are too busy, but don't recognise your likely screw up when it's all gone quiet!!

Mhh. Have not gone sailing past FIR's and has not gotten quiet with me. Just an observation I have made in the last few years.
