               9.    Forwarding messages



               When flying in areas with poor radio coverage or when flying at low altitude, you

               may not always be able to reach the unit you are calling.

               A  radio  station  may  also  have  problems  calling  an  aircraft.  In  such  cases,  an

               aircraft at high altitude can be helpful in relaying messages.




               Let's look at an example. Copenhagen Information cannot call OY-CTZ but tries

               to have a message forwarded through OY-DYT.

               It could happen like this:



                                    OY-DYT Copenhagen Information



                                    Copenhagen Information OY-DYT


                                      O-YT  Copenhagen  Information  request  you  to  relay  a

                                      message for OY-CTZ


                                      WILCO O-YT



                                      O-YT message for OY-CTZ contact Copenhagen information

                                      Vest 129.475


                                      OY-CTZ  from  OY-DYT  MESSAGE  FROM  Copenhagen

                                      Information  contact  Copenhagen  Information  Vest

                                      frequency 129.475


                                      OY-DYT from OY-CTZ changing frequency to 129.475


                                       Yes, then we got that message – a bit embarrassed that we
                                       forgot to switch to the West frequency, but good that Captain

                                       Cook in OY-DYT could act as a relay station ☺
