I'll let you know tomorrow if I broadcast to the tower, or if I direct my communications. I'm leaning towards the former, at the moment.

If you start your communications by saying "Boundry Bay Tower...." you're directing communications. If it's "Boundry Bay Traffic...." you're broadcasting. Look, I just saved you time. No need to get back to me or think about it anymore.

What if I open my broadcast with "Boundary Bay Tower"?

You answered your own question. If you state the name of the ground station, you are directing communications, not broadcasting.

If I'm not broadcasting, how is it that everyone else can hear me? This is very confusing and difficult to understand.

I figured you were having trouble. Ask any other pilot, they can help.

If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one to hear it fall, does it make a sound (broadcast) ? :lol:

The difference Rookie is that I talk on the radio for a living and take it seriously. When I pointed out your use of the word broadcast, all you had to say was that you didn't mean to use it in that context. Instead, you got mad and felt sorry for yourself and then blamed me for your ignorance. Understandable if you were 10yrs old. If you're going to post in a forum you better know what your talking about or act like an adult when you realize you were wrong.

How was I supposed to know you didn't know what you were talking about. Nice tantrum.

The term broadcast may not have importance or meaning to some of you but it certainly means something to ATS. This is the ATS Forum after all.

When an AM/FM radio station "broadcasts a message or music, it is casting its message/music to a broad area and many listeners Hence BROAD- CAST
In aviation, you BROAD-CAST your intentions to NO ONE in particular, therefore it is NOT meant to be a 1 to 1 conversation with FSS or Tower.
Rookie, Grow up :wink:
