Can't use a sextant either

Never learned horns, whistles or toots. Radios make that all somewhat obsolete. I had to laugh the first time someone on the ICW told me on the radio that they would pass me with two whistles. I asked him to use English.

Even scarier, 50% of these don't use their radios either!
