[MRCA] KW1I On Maritime Patrol

[B. Smith]

Well we listened just about every hour down here in chickenland but no joy.
Did work Al and Walt with nice sigs and had an interesting discussion 
with Walt about his PRC-47. We decided that the inverter whine was not 
being injected into his audio from the power supply but the actual whine 
after extensive testing was found to be ambient noise. He moved away 
from the set and it got weaker.  :-)
