Thanks. No problem with Oban 118.05 from S of Kerrera. No problem on 127.275 from off Tobermory to E of Lochinver. If my radio was the problem, it was on just one frequency. As I said, I'll revert to talking to Scottish once I'm clear of the hills. (Unless I'm staying high) The accident thread comments which sparked this thread got me to try to contact earlier.
