Marine radio

PC/PET and PC/PBT blends offer high strength, toughness (including at low temperature), chemical resistance, excellent UV stability along with improved flame retardancy and colorabihty. They find use in telecommunications equipment for marine radio housings, antenna housings and bases, and cellular telephone handsets. [Pg.971]

Radio applications are widespread and include commercial radio, amateur radio, marine radio, aviation radio, radar, navigation, and microwave. [Pg.1573]

Marine Radio. All large ships and most small oceangoing vessels are equipped with a marine radio. Its purposes included calling for aid, communicating with other vessels, and communicating with shore-based facilities, such as harbors, marinas, bridges, and... [Pg.1573]

CHEMTREC, CANUTEC, and CECOM. In the United States, the Chemical Transportation Emergency Center (CHEMTREC), in Arlington, Virginia, is the dispatch agency that is used. CHEMTREC operates 24 hours a day, 7 days per week, to receive direct dial toll free calls from any point in the continental United States at 1-800-424-9300. The number for Alaska and Hawaii and for calls from marine radio telephones is 703-527-3887. CHEMTREC provides immediate advice for those at the scene of emergencies, then promptly contacts the appropriate responder group. In many cases this will be the shipper. However, in some cases the... [Pg.326]

Although use of radio and stable isotope labels involving the trio of covalently-bonded nitrogenous functions in 3 and in 78, provided evidence that isocyano is the precursor of the isothiocyano and formamido groups [30, 81], it remains to be shown that a biosynthetic equivalent of the in vitro chemically-proven fusion process between isocyano and free sulfur (e.g., cf. Introduction) exists in the cells of sponges. In marine biota, various ionic forms of sulfur in a number of oxidation states, as well as organo-polysulfides are known. However, any association with the isonitrile group and a sulfated species has yet to be established. [Pg.77]

Bandwidth commonly refers to a range of frequencies. For example, in Table 7.1, a bandwidth of 300 kHz to 300 MHz is assigned to radio broadcast and marine communication. Any filter intended to filter out the noise due to these sources must be designed for this particular bandwidth. [Pg.161]

Approximately three years ago, one FLC member, the Naval Ocean Systems Center (NOSC), was asked by the Naval Electronics Command to design and build a microphone and earphone device which could be used with a new radio being built for the Marine Corps. [Pg.89]

Texaco has supported the radio broadcasts of the Metropolitan Opera for many years. The company has made donations to the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, the New York Botanical Garden, Louisiana Nature and Science Center, and The Nature Conservancy. It also supports an urban tree-planting program.186 It donated 3000 acres of cypress-tupelo swamp in Louisiana to the Nature Conservancy for a bird refuge in 1994.187 It has also donated 10,000 acres of land in Utah for a wildlife habitat in 1995.188 The company also refers to continued cost-inefficient government regulations in the same report. [Pg.529]

The ICAD is a miniature lightweight chemical warfare agent detector that can be worn by the individual. It detects and alarms to nerve, blood, choking, and blister agents and is intended for a variety of applications. The ICAD may be used as a point detector. It may be connected with a radio for remote operations and can be mounted on vehicles. It has an audio and/or visual alarm capability. The ICAD weighs 8 oz, does not require maintenance, requires only minimal training, and does not contain a radioactive source. The Marines are presently fielding the ICAD. [Pg.247]

Substituted pyran-2-ones can be conveniently obtained from saturated alcohols by a free radioed carbonylation / oxidation process initiated by lead tetraacetate (94JA5473). The cyclisation of 1,3,5-triketones by PPha in CCI4 has been used to synthesise the two pyran-2-one halves of the marine metabolite onchitriol (94TL9581). [Pg.275]

Sources of sex pheromones have now been described in several species of fish, and whenever urine has been examined, it has been shown to have pheromonal activity (Liley 1982 Liley Stacey 1983 Stacey et al 1986 Stacey et al. 1994 Appelt, Sorensen Kellner 1995 Vermeirssen, Scott Liley 1997). This is notable because both studies which have described temporal characteristics of urinary release in fish have found urine to be released in a pulsatile manner (Fletcher 1990 Curtis Wood 1991). Unfortunately, neither study used fish known to be releasing pheromones. In a study of a freshwater fish, Curtis and Wood (1991) used external catheters and a radio-label to demonstrate that rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus my kiss) held individually in laboratory tanks urinated approximately every 30 min. In a study of a marine fish, the plaice (Pleuronectes platessa), Fletcher (1990) demonstrated that isolated plaice held in laboratory tanks urinate once every few days. The primary objective of this study was to determine whether a link between pheromones and pulsatile urinary release exists. [Pg.248]

Eastern Pacific windiwave analysis A graphical marine forecast of wind and waves is produced for selected points in the eastern and south Pacific. Products include a now-cast and 24 h forecast (issued four times/day) and 48 and 72 h forecasts (updated two times/ day). Wind/wave forecasts are transmitted by radio fax from Pt. Reyes, California, and Honolulu. [Pg.143]
