There's one tape. There's a number of different channels but only one

Now whether
that is true or not, it doesn't seem to me to be in the best interest of

of radio calls that GND / CD have to handle -- i.e. inflating their
numbers.


What happens on CD/GC has no affect whatsoever on their traffic count.
