Now *that* brings back an ancient memory!
In the late 1960s, there was a talk at the colledge by a group of radio
amateurs, and the bit that stuck in my mind was on maintaining VHF
communications across the English channel... by bouncing the signals off
aircraft using a combination of flight times and tracking gear :)
There was a bit of a competition going as to how long they could maintain
contact, continually switching planes as their paths crossed. I don't remember
any figures, but believe it was in days rather than hours.
