  • As an airline pilot I worked Portishead in HF R/T on a few occasions. As ex MN I think I used them before it became common for aircraft to do so....but I might be wrong.

  • 73 Guys, I worked with you from 1981 to 1998 frequently. PERFECT SERVICE.

  • radio was exciting, as an ex army CW operator i really enjoyed the pleasure of being being involved in radio. sorry to see it slowly disapear.

  • better WITHOUT the stupid music

  • Great Video with the sad end common to many other C/S sites.

    As Deep Sea R/O i worked with Portishead many times.

  • The old days were the days of true romance in radio. Today it's just a hand full of SM chips on a board and some cable with automated voices. Blaugh! Boring!

  • "THE WORLD'S MOST FAMOUS MARITIME RADIO STATION..."

    What kind of emotional shit is this? Don't forget that Brittania hasn't ruled nothing for ages.

  • Wow, old timey nerds. Cool! Heist them pants up higher!!!!

  • Came across this video while looking for something else (that;s the internet for you)!

    Brilliant. I worked GKB almost on a daily basis while on Niarchos tankers (1973 - 1986). Could QSO from half-way round the world. Excellent station, first class R/Os.

    My last ship was the World Recovery/5MRH.

  • Bob Clay sea going sparks 1970-86.

    Very nostalgic ... and sad at the end.
