Correct; because it is not a regular calling channnel. Nobody is supposed to use it unless in emergency. But like I said, in Mexico they use CH 16 widely: http://www.thelog.com/printer/article.asp?c=78408 - seems like all marinas on the list use CH 16 - or I don't undestand what they wanted to say in this document. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
