Default Webcast... We're junk.

Hi Crew,

After nearly 3 days of tweaking, tuning, and banging my head on the table, we're pulling the ripcord on the broadcast. Please accept my apologies, I pulled out all the stops, and tried my ass off to get this running. Our latest results were alot better, but the video was freezing, and the results were unacceptable. The good news is that we can still vids and photos uploaded throughout the day.

Thanks again for your understanding guys.

MD

Personally I think if you would have hooked the flux diode tansmultipler to the side winding giggia whatchamahigget your feed would have slightly imporved. Thats what ya get for not carrying a spare desimation mutiplex dihedrial ocilator. MAN.. I think I have brought this up many many times!

Oh well... smack those videos up sir... were counting on you!

Do it up FG style!

Tank. An atomic vector plotter with a brownian motion stimulator (tea) would also help.

Well Max, I want you "ALL" to know we appreciate your efforts, and the videos you took were off the hook, and thank Toro for the great filming job on the sequence flights he got, not an easy task with those cloud conditions.
So just do what you do and have a blast at the TSO and give us a report when you can.

Thanks, Chuck
