Default War in Solomon Islands?

There are over 2000 troops sent there to quell uprisings.
Has anybody heard anything on HF? The remoteness tends to suggest HF would be
used.

The Solomon Islands can be heard here in NA in the early morning hours local time
on 5019.9. Best in the winter months, unless you like the static crashes! I just
checked the frequency at 1000, and they are there.

Isn't the Solomons where a couple of P3 weather planes were recently sent, to
keep tabs on the weather around North Korea, just in case the info was needed
in a hurry?

WS1,

The P3's can sorta kinda do 'weather work' . . .

It's a pretty good haul from the Solomons to N. Korea.

Hmm... Maybe the P3's went to Guam, then.
