Don't know the details yet, but I'll be listening!

Last thing I heard was Halifax Military instructing someone out in the
field to make radio contact again before going into the water.

Is it 5717 or 5718? My old CFL shows 5718 as a Canuck freq.

I was hearing them on 5717, though they've gone silent for the last
few minutes.

afternoon.

Just heard Halifax military talking to Rescue 320. I had clear copy on
Halifax military but no copy at all on Rescue 320, so I'm still not
clear about what's going on. Halifax M. said it would be in contact
with Rescue 320 again in a few minutes. Someone up North might be
better situated to hear all of this.

Heard Halifax military giving data about weather / sea conditions at
destination to Rescue 320, and while 320 is audible now I'm still not
able to copy. Halifax Military also having trouble copying 320.

If anyone's curious about how things sound on my end, you can go here
for a sound bite:

http://www.supload.com/sound_confirm...=695895286.wav

It's about a 3.3MB download, so it'll take a minute on a good
connection.

I'm guessing that the reference to St. Anthony that you hear in this
audio clip is a reference to that town of that name in Newfoundland:

Sounds pretty good except for a motorboat sound. Was that from the radio
to computer connection? What radio did you use?
