Hurricane Dorian was a long-lived, extremely powerful and destructive Category 5 hurricane that devastated the northwestern Bahamas and caused significant damage to the Southeastern United States and Atlantic Canada. It was the fifth depression, fourth named storm, second hurricane, and the first major hurricane of the 2019 Atlantic hurricane season. The hurricane caused catastrophic damage to Grand Bahama and Abaco Island, with at least 70,000 people left homeless.

Have to use the station/modem for some tests for developing software/capture techniques needed for RM-11831. Not sure how long this is going to take, perhaps 1-3 weeks. Can put the station back on the air for hurricanes, etc.... Looking for volunteers to create traffic on selected gateways in Florida and nearby states as experimental "fodder" for my testing. ALSO LOOKING FOR ADDITIONAL STATIONS TO TEST THIS SOFTWARE!!!!!! Thanks. Gordon
