[South Florida DX Association] Need To Translate Something?

[Bill Marx]

Hi Dave,
I did it several times and it didn't translate as well the next two times.

Nothings perfect I guess....My office translates regularly for it's many 
publications and there are always different opinions when they are compared. 
Then, when the customer gets it they also may translate it differently and 
call to complain.

It was meant as a fun thing....not perfect. If you need a Russian phrase for 
a QSL it will work fine. If you need a translation from a Japanese site on a 
new radio it may not...have fun with it.

Adam:  That's better, but the best translation is "Collins fabrica el mejor
equipo de radiocomunicaciones del mundo".   --And I don't think it that's
true any longer.  (Pardon me, Bill.)  Translation is one of the most
difficult arts for men, not made for machines.  I have used several
translation software in my office and none of them is accurate.
