Hello All, Like Colin, I almost received new-TP audio on the SRF-59 this morning. During the storm (and finding it tough to sleep), I checked the band around 0930 UTC, and found very nice audio from HLAZ-1566, obviously peaking at its local sunset. These peaks usually drop out without warning, so I urgently grabbed the SRF-59, and did everything possible to coax some audio out of a strong HET on the frequency. Unfortunately, HLAZ starting diving when I started trying... and yet again the lesson was learned: There is no such thing as a "routine TP" on these pocket radios. Anyway, I'm glad that Patrick is safe, and the storm seems relatively mild here-- just some minor flooding in the back yard. 73, Gary (in Puyallup, WA)
