Re: [IRCA] the struggles of HLAZ to be heard

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

Wellll, Don, there's no salt water path to HLAZ from here for a couple of hundred kilometers at least, but even so,  your path hardly involves water at all.   But then, might there have been a Beverage involved in your reception?

Thanks to your recording, I knew what to look for... it just wasn't nearly as loud.

Hope the contest went well.

Nick
