I felt a bump and then the glassware/bottles rattled.  The dogs were napping and jumped up at the bump.  Leica looked at me and calmed down, Eastman was convinced it was the start of the Alien Space Bat Global Invasion and was on high alert for maybe 10 minutes.

Given the 2.1 magnitude I’m surprised by how vigorous and sharp that initial bump was.  The brief shake afterwards I don’t think I would have noticed except for glassware in the cabinet (close together) and the bottles in the booze cabinet rattling.

Hi Paul.
 
Did the pups alert you to the fact there was earth movement, or did you feel it first?
 
Glad there was no damage.

Hello everyone:
 
Just wanted to let you know that at 1935 this evening, real close to the intersection of 332 Ave NE and NE 108th Street, there was a 2.1 magnitude earthquake. It was supposed to be about 4.7 miles deep. 
 
I felt nothing and heard nothing. My earthquake app picked it up.
 
Hope none of you suffered any damage.

Thanks, Tom,

Not surprised you didn’t feel anything.  2.1 is pretty small and only shakes for a few seconds.  Ryan may have felt it in the valley, but anyone on the ridges probably not.  3s, though, will get your attention and 4s and 5s can be pretty scary.

Stay safe,

Bob KI7RMO

Re: Alan AC2K SK

Tom WA7TBP
 

Hi Robin:
 
Thanks for the info about Alan. I had the pleasure of working with him on some ham EMCOMM projects and working him on the air. He was an excellent operator and a great source of information. The ham community lost a good one here.
 
Hope you are enjoying the summer.

Some in our club who knew Alan Komenski may not be on the other lists announcing his passing from Leukemia yesterday morning. He was president of Radio Club of Redmond before retiring to Tucson, AZ. He made a big contribution toward emergency communications professionally. He had probably the cleanest, most listenable CW fist I ever heard. He was very generous as a CW rag chewer willing to QSO at any speed for those less skilled and learning. His key now silent will be sorely missed in the CW community.

Hi everyone:
 
I want to thank Paul, W7PFB, Bob, KI7RMO, Ralph, KC7QXD, Paul, W7PEZ for helping me dismantle the outside antennas and coax runs at Jim, W7ABD's (SK) QTH. We did some good work today.
 
Jo-Anne, Jim's widow, donated all of his ham gear to SNOVARC. Once Jo-Anne gets further into packing for her move, we may be going back to help her thin out his remaining ham gear.
 
Thanks again to the crew. We overcame all the little issues we encountered. Good to have many heads tackling problems.

Thanks Paul. So far, it is only you and me. Would two of us be enough to lower the antennas? It might take more of us if Jo-Anne decides to donate Jim's gear to the club.

 

Right now, Monday is my first choice, and I have time limits on Tuesday.

Hello everyone:

 

Jo-Anne contacted me this week. She is interested in having us come over and take down Jim's antennas and help her dismantle his ham station. The first dates she is interested in are August 22 or 23. These dates are not cast in stone, but she hopes that she can get the project done sooner, rather than later.

 

Please let me know via e-mail if you are able to help on either of those two days. If we have to choose a different day, I will coordinate with Jo-Anne on the dates. She tells me that all is moving smoothly with the preparation of selling the house.

 

Thank you in advance for working with Jo-Anne with her projects.
