« on: August 26, 2020, 1734 UTC »
A quick reminder for those interested in monitoring the Hurricane Watch Net regarding Hurricane Laura.

https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/graphics_at3.shtml

Daytime is 14325 USB and nighttime is 7268 LSB, though both or either might be used at any time depending upon conditions.

Here is a public WebSDR in Florida for those without coverage:

People in the path of the storm, please take care and stay safe.

Yeah!!! The leftovers are even predicted to dump here in WV this weekend. Good reminder on that net!
I was asked, yet another weird question, of how I would like to be buried, when I finally bite the big one. The answer was actually pretty easy. Face-down, like a certain historical figure in the late 1980's, (I will not mention who, but some of you will get it, and that's enough.) Why??? It would be a burial that will satisfy everyone: (1) My enemies will say that it will show me where to go. (2) On the same point, I can have my enemies kiss my butt. (3) It will temporarily give someone a place to park a bicycle. See??? A WIN / WIN for everyone.
