I agree with ya popnchipper. On a few occasions I've been on final while the plane on the ground calls taxiing. "Just on short final for 34 guys". But they didn't hear that cause they were on 126.70. You can't transmit and receive at the same time. So yeah, waiting between calls is courteous.

Not sure what the NORDO guys are supposed to make of that. Seems like false comfort. I think I just might say something even if I wasn't invited to advise of a conflict - potential or otherwise.

Personally I like

"any conflicting traffic get the *uck outta my way"

I agree with popnchipper with one thing to add; Too many of these 26.7 calls from aircraft taxiing end up stepping on 26.7 reception of airborne aircraft. When VFR I don't see the point of the extra broadcast.
