Diego Garcia up and active on 13254 at 1515, with a female operator. Excellent
signal here this morning.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a little more activity out of Diego in the next
few days and weeks as there may be some relief flights headed to the earthquake
affected area(s).

Isn't DG bound to BE an earthquake affected area. The Maldives got
plastered and they were saying the tsunami was 15-30 feet at Thailand.

Now we know why palm trees evolved to not have any low branches.

Yes, they are indeed in an earthquake area, but apparently received no damage this
time around.

In 1983 Diego suffered a 7.6 earthquake.

I just heard this evening on NPR that DG was not affected much by the waves
or the quake.
