Marlinspike: the eyes don't have it!

By the way, I have even been using an HP200LX palmtop, a simple demodulator, and a handheld Icom reciever to recieve PACKET, AMTOR, SITOR, WEFAX, NAVTEC, MORSE, etc. from my car for some time now. The whole unit fits in a modified lunch box, and is run from a few nicads charged from a solar panel built into the top. During hurricane season it lives under the seat.

Aw;
I hooked up all my weather gear into a computer and when I turned it on I got, "Red sky at night, sailor's delight"
"Red Sky in the morning, sailor take warning".
PERFECT!!

Ha! You're laughing, but I wrote some scripting language for my office computer that speaks the weather in "pirate". It announces stuff like "Not a fit day for man nor beast... Harrrrr." Pretty silly, but I get a kick out of it.
