You've brought up an interesting thought, mook. <br /> <br />In CROR there is a rule thgat states using the Radio to give advance information pertaining to a fixed signal is not allowed. <br /> <br />The word for word rule is - <br /><i> <br />126. RESTRICTED USE OF RADIO <br />In addition to the restrictions in Rules 14 and 602, radio must not be used to; <br /> <br />(i) give advance information with respect to the indication of a fixed signal; or <br /> <br />(ii) give information which may influence a crew to consider that speed restrictions are diminished. <br /></i> <br /> <br />Now in this case would it be considered that you are giving advanced notice? <br /> <br />I suppose even if the message said "signal number 466 has changed" you would still be in violation of ii, because they are obviously waiting at a stop signal so if the message were to be sent off that "the signal has been changed" then any signal change would be less restrictive than stop and you would be in violation because the speed restrictions are diminished. <br /> <br />Not sure if this rule is used in the states or not. <br />
