What happened to relay ops?

[bozwoz]

Not too many years ago i used to be a relay operator, while i was still with the corps i became a telecommunications operator relay. I recently went to an exhibition for schools and wandered over to the Signals stand just for old times sake and found no mention of my former trade. What has happened to the trade as i still see the odd Relay waggon rolling along.

Not wanting to seem too thick but does that mean the whole Trunk Node is operated by one trade? (i dont mean to exclude the support personel)

You're right...............less support bods, you've got yerself a Trunk/Access Node Op.

Things are going to change further when systems like Cormorant and Falcon come on line.

Just like the changes when we went from Bruin to Ptarmigan.
