Instead of purchasing a proper marine VHF they'd go out and rely on a mobile phone...... calling for help using a mobile in a distress situation instead of a 'general broadcast' on the emergency channel that would bring the nearest vessel in moments.When tshtf I want a bit of privacy in my comms. Not broadcasting my intentions and whereabouts over a large area.
