Personally, I limit my CTAF transmissions to announcing my position,
and nothing else.


I'd agree. Particularly annoying are these clods running around with
handheld radios - using them
to keep track of each other, coordinate lunch, etc - nothing
whatsoever to do with the safety of
flight. Sometimes it's better to to turn the radio off than listen to
the drivel.


One of the only upsides of GA flying declining is that there is far
less of that noise on the radio now. Personally, I'd like to suffer
with the drivel again.



Well, we do have to listen to you, so...
