No need. I have just banned him.
BRL, well done - you have just made my day!
DX Wombat, Well done on using the service and frequency as intended. It seems some so-called professional pilots (including ones who can't even spell professional) apparently can't work out how to turn down the radio volume for 121.5 for a minute or so, then turn it up again.
I operate single pilot IFR and if I can manage to monitor 121.5, they should certainly be able to, with F all to do and someone else to help them.....
In any event, legitimate chatter on 121.5 proves to the worriers that the frequency is working and that they are actually monitoring it!
The ones that really pee me off are those calling "Shanwick, Shanwick" or "Ops" a number of times. Obviously, it's not the PPL flyers doing that....
