OK, SOCAL has a freq that covers the San Diego coastline from Point Loma north almost to Dana Point in Orange County. The coastal route is the main North/South corridor in and out SD County...

I was a flight instructor doing air work on a Sunday afternoon off the coast. I was on w/ SOCAL for flight following. A king air checked in, coming down from the north. The king air was based at CRQ, IIRC, and flown by two local young ladies who were well known in the instructor/charter/135 community in SD. They check in, but then the PTT sticks...

For the length of time it takes a king air to fly from San Onofre to MYF, everybody on freq got an earful of what (and who, and how) these girls had done while on layover in San Fran...and it got GRAPHIC..I think I was too shocked to even laugh at the time, but in retrospect it was pretty funny. I'm a guy, but based on that conversation I now believe that size does in fact matter...

I guess SOCAL thought it was funny too, cuz they didn't interupt once...
