Under the call sign “Producer,” Valentyn serves as a sapper in the Rubizh Brigade. He says a sapper must “constantly learn and adapt” — especially on the hot Pokrovsk front. His dream: “to end the war soon and bring all our comrades home.”
After one mission, his team came under FPV drone attack. “They circled above us for nearly an hour. When the batteries finally ran out, we got out alive.”

"The planet you are sitting on right now, as unbelievable as it seems, slowly pieced together by the collisions of endless cosmic scraps over millions of years. Formed by nothing more than the force of gravity, dust became rock, rock became boulder, and boulder became a molten lump so vast it would pull itself into the near-perfect sphere that we know and inhabit today."

"Life on Earth is a glorious abundance, richly diverse and phenomenally complex and interconnected. Our seas sparkle with fish species, our skies ring with the cries of birds and our forests are shaded by towering trees. It's worth taking a moment to appreciate how fantastic and how unlikely all this life really is, and to consider how we can protect and support it all for our futures."

So--WWV is back on 11 meters, then. I don't know about it being "underutilized", though, as it's pretty quirky unless the station's nearby the receiver. My guess is that WWV's presence is just an item of nostalgia, just like the claim that Venezuela contains U.S. property. #Citgo
CB used to be interesting when one found truckers on those bands like in its licenseless heyday, and interesting when you had to apply for a license and its intended use was for citizens to participate in weather disaster handling. Those good ole days are gone forever whether you utilize 11 meters or not.

If that's where I think it is, a slide could cover the busiest freeway interchange in greater downtown Seattle; and possibly block access to 1 of the 2 bridges linking Seattle & the Kirkland/Bellevue/Renton tech biggies district.

I hadn't realized that so much of that escarpment lining the east side if I-5 through the southern half of the city; and adjoining the industrial areas, the rail link-ups, the Port of Seattle, and the only bridge over West Seattle; was a static landslide.
I guess that's part of the fun of living on what the south end of north-receeding glacier leaves behind.
