I have been backwards and forwards over the short crossing a fair bit. Last time was today. At a weekend you could shout Mayday for 20 sec and nobody would hear you as at least two others would be trying to talk. Most people cross at around 3000ft. At that height I understand 121.5 coverage, in that area, is very good on both sides. I really think 121.5 is a vastly better prospect in that area. Up north I am sure you are right.
