' In the case of directive antennas, indicate directivity and azimuth. AGreenwich mean time (O.M.T .) I The internal telegraph charge of the country to which the coast station belongs and the charge applied by this country to telegrams addressed to adjoining countries are given in an annex to the present nomen- clature. If the accounts for charges are settled by a private operating enterprise, indicate, if need be, the name and address of this private operating enterprise. ' Special information concerning the calling hours for the transmission of call lists, and, if possible, the hours during which coast stations keep watch on the various wavelengths, et cetera. ' There must be indicated for each country the coast station or coast stations to which radiotelegrams intended for short-wave transmission to ship stations must be sent. PART C. DESCRIPTIVE LIST OF SHIP STATIONS The information relating to these stations is published in two or three lines in the following order: First line: Call signal below which will appear the ship charge, followed by a reference to indicate the administration or private operating enterprise to which the accounts for charges must be addressed. In case of a change of address of the operating agency, a sec- ond reference after the charge will give the new address and the date on which the change will become effective. Name of the ship, placed in alphabetical order without regard to nationality followed by the call signal in case of homonymy; in this case, the name and call signal shall be separated by a fraction bar; next, the symbols X, A, et cetera. When two or more ship stations of the same nationality have the same name, as well as in cases where statements of charges must be sent directly to the owner of the ship, mention shall be made, in a footnote, of the name of the shipping company or of the ship-owner to which the ship belongs. Power in the antenna in kilowatts. Meter amperes, in parentheses, for 500 kc (600 m). In order to obtain the "meter-ampere" product, the real height of the antenna in meters, measured from the transmission line, is multiplied by the effective current in amperes at the base of the antenna. Nature of the service. Working hours shown as a service indication or note. Hours shown otherwise than in the form of service indications must be given in Greenwich mean time (G.M.T .) 193470°-41 -PT. --- 24 1607
