Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 9-20

["R. Colin Newell" <coffeecanuck@xxxxxxxxx>]

I encourage Gary to have a look at my crystal clear audio and video of HLAZ
- I made numerous passes and each time and heard nothing unusual -

You must have a pipe line to North Korea - my 657 was buried in muck the
entire time - and I was not there but up-band for that generous and giving
sun rise book that, I swear,
warmed up the shack!
