[South Florida DX Association] Need To Translate Something?

[Pete Rimmel - Marine Chemist - N8PR]

Adam,

Actually you were more correct that you think...  Collins has never been
known for  its ability to miniaturize its equipment.  You were right, though
not what you meant... their equipment is BIG  -- LOL -- at least bigger
physically than most of the rice boxes we see now-a-days...

73,  PeteR

Hi Dave,

Well, for a non-Spanish speaker I guess I didn't brutalise the language too
badly!

Rockwell-Collins are one of the world leaders in radio communications and
avionics nowadays. They have displaced Marconi and Racal as suppliers to the
Royal Navy, among other things.

Cheers for now, 73,

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.
