I wish you would all learn to LIVE AND LET LIVE...

I wish you would take Comprehension 101 a few hundred
times and realise that what was being discussed was
how much morse gets used today and not whether those
tho like it are welcome to use it as much as they like.

if people wish to use MORSE...let them use it.

How does MORSE feel about being used ?

Does he end up feeling a bit tacky afterwards ?

I don't use Morse, but it doesn't bother me if others do.

Rather pathetic, really.

Maybe not, but with the ITU saying that CW is no longer a necessity, it wont

Gee, wonder if that means that the ITU don't consider morse to be that
important anymore????

I think your thinking is too narrow.

Not a shred of evidence that you are actually capable of rational thought.

When your assault group or raiding party is dropped off at night
from its parent group (operating in total electronic blackout) just
outside the enemy littoral, how do you think they all communicate?

They dont use semaphore.

I'll be willing to bet that smoke signals. hand
signals, carrier pigeons, and a whole raft of
non-electronic communications aids are used,

More fool you. Only hand singles are.

(Not married ones, Rod?

This is no laughing matter, boy.

*At night*? Do you guys light yourselves up first so your party
(and the enemy) can see you do the hokey-pokey, smoke a
bong and release the hounds - I mean, carrier pigeons - first?

Yeah, thats why they are doing so badly in Iraq, stupid.

This is a mildly amusing thread, but this
sub-thread is well into the ridiculous.

You get no say what so ever on that or anything else at all. Ever.

And dont you forget it.

I've just bought a JBS air conditioner. The wiring is such that the power
lead
runs into the head and from the head to the compressor. In general with
the
majority of split systems, is it possible to run a dedicated 3 core power
cable
to the compressor and simply connect the control cable between the head
and
compressor?

The reason I ask is that the compressor is going to be mounted about 1m
away
from my meter box. This will save me the hassle of getting a dedicated
circuit
installed in my bedroom for the air con if only the head is running out of
the
GPO.

You have to run the control cable and gas pipes between the compressor and
head unit. Just mount a weatherproof GPO outside and run the power flex from
the head unit out with the control wire, break it out of the duct near the
GPO and voila! Bob's your uncle.

But if you do it yourself you are being naughty and you'll need a
certificate from a licenced installer to make any future waranty claim.

Signal flags are nothing like semaphore

Actually, landing signals are NOT flag signals.

Never said they were. The word either is there for a reason.

Like semaphore, they MAY use flags, or even
lights, but that is for convenience, not meaning.

Completely irrelevant to whether they are semaphore.

I DO know what semaphore is, as I do know what
landing signals are, something that you obviously do not.

We'll see.

Please do not confuse either with the international
code of signals, which is a letter code, using one,
two or three letters to convey a meaning.

Wasnt even being discussed.

These letters may be passed by morse (sound or light
signalling), semaphore or by international code flags.

And like I originally asked, I doubt anyone is
bothering with semaphore FOR FUN anymore.

Semaphore signals are given here :
http://www.anbg.gov.au/flags/semaphore.html

No news to me boy.

Landing signals : <http://www.fedpubs.com/subject/boat/life_saving.htm

Clearly nothing to do with semaphore, as I said.

And that is a stupid reference,
http://www.mcga.gov.uk/c4mca/signals.pdf
is much more useful.

The international code of signals (Flags):
http://flagspot.net/flags/flagicsa.html> et al

The International code of signals (meanings):
http://pollux.nss.nima.mil/pubs/pubs_j_show_sections.html?
dpath=ICOS&ptid=7&rid=1466

All completely irrelevant to whether lifesaving signals are semaphore.

The above are international in meaning. Various navies had (still have?)
their own private codes, hence the "international code" flag.

All completely irrelevant to whether lifesaving signals are semaphore.

In semaphore, a particular arm (or flag)
position, indicates a certain character,

No news to me boy.

in landing signals, which incidentally are nothing to do with aircraft,
a certain arm (or flag) position indicates a defined meaning.

So aint semaphore, stupid.

You may also wish to know that morse code may
be sent by flag, in a similar manner to semaphore.

Aint relevant to what is being discussed,
whether lifeguards use semaphore. They dont.

However, semaphore is the more efficient code
requiring only one flag movement, whereas morse
will typically require several flag movements.

More completely irrelevant waffle. Nothing to do with that stupid
claim you made about lifeguards still using semaphore. They dont.

Usually a lockable isolation switch is installed near to where the
compressor is to be mounted (the outside bit). These are usually
weather proof switches which a padlock or tag can be put inside so it
can be locked off for servicing. Small aircons, like 1 hp or less
often seem to be just plugged into a normal power point, running
current is less than 5 amps. Most single phase split system aircons
come with a cord and plug but around here this is usually cut off and
the unit hard wired to an isolation switch.

Running a few metres of single phase cable isn't very difficult or
expensive, just has to go where it has to go or you'll end up with a
crappy installation

The airconditioners ive seen installed state the power requirements in
the instruction book and recommended circuit breaker size.

You could DIY it but its a lot of messing around and you probably dont
want to break it. Theres a few tricks with them too which only come
from experience.

In that they are both waving arms/flags etc. about they are the same, but
the meaning of the movements are quite different. Particular arm positions
in semaphore mean different characters, unlike landing signals, where each
"arm position" means a different action should be taken.
