I work in hospital, in ICU, I often bring patients into radio room, I am familiar with these devices!

@marc battault: Really, you work in ICU? Wow, that must be one challenging job, Marc, not sure if I could do it!

Mirela, is a fascinating profession, hard and touching at once, when our patients return to see us being cured, is a joy and personal enrichment!
kisses!
