Say What? ;-)


If it's just your transmitter that has failed you have not experienced a
two-way radio communications failure. Better the second time?



If you lose either TX or RX, then you don't have two-way communications.
Therefore you have two-way radio communications failure and should
operate
according to 91.185.


If you lose just transmitter or just receiver you can still communicate
one-way. Two-way radio communications failure means loss of both
transmitter and receiver.


Steve, quit being so argumentative and think for a change. Two-way
communication means the radio (hence operator) can send (1 way) and receive
(1 way). If you lose the transmitter or the receiver you are no longer in
two-way communication, although you may in fact still be in one-way
communication. How much simpler can that be?

If you still have a transponder and a receiver you still have two-way.

Or perhaps a transponder and VOR voice.
