[ARC5] 40 years ago today

[Robert Nickels]

While it has nothing to do with ARC-5s, it was forty years ago on Nov. 
10, 1975 that the freighter Edmund Fitzgerald sank during a ferocious 
storm on Lake Superior, killing all 29 men aboard.    But, since this 
list is known for respecting the noble purpose these radios were 
developed and originally used for, I thought it would be OK to pass this 
along:    A 32 minute recording of the fascinating Coast Guard radio 
transmissions from that fateful day can be heard here:

It is worth taking a few moments to remember those who were lost and to 
offer thanks to all first responders who willingly put themselves in 
harms way whenever a tragedy like this occurs.
