I sent the first message to you, Hue, via direct email in attempt to save 
you further embarrassment. But it would appear it's too late.
I must agree with Bob. You are totally full of @#$T!

Don't blame Joe, this is again me on his machine.

What vessels would those be?
Not ocean going vessels, I would guess.

That was probably true in the 1960's.  Certainly, in '67 and '68, our two 
were never used for anything but Harbor Common and Tug Control.  But it 
definitely was not true in the 40's when many smaller vessels had no HF 
radio other than a TCS.

  Roger, you could probably count on your two hands' fingers the number of
  times TCS's were
  ever used for CW.
  But - they had to provide it, "just in case".
