This is language used in two-way communications, in this case since we're talking about Lake Winnipesaukee, Marine VHF two-way communications.

Over means you have finished speaking and expect a response.

Out
means you have finished and you do not want a response.

There is no such thing as Over N Out!

So if Skip's last message was meant to rely that he has no intention of responding to anything else in this thread his signature should have been: OUT!

Just a pet peeve of mine, sorry for the rant! Over...
