My mistake. I got that wrong. I was distracted by the opportunity to finally use {‘aSralya’} and our recent {X-vo’ Y-Daq} thread. But checking my notes I see that the object of {lab} “transmit data (away from a place)” is be the message, not the recipient: Marc Okrand jIH. De' potlh vIlab. I am Marc Okrand and I bring you an important message. ('U'-MTK) ghe'naQ Daqvo' QInvam wIlab. We will place a homing device transmitting this message at the site of the opera.
