The Red Headed Black Belt newspaper gives very good coverage of the SRF complex.

They are not posting the IAP on the FTP. Interesting that the fed team is on the Yeti.

Why? Is it in federal DPA?

What does the Yeti have to do with the SRF complex?

@Sfdtiller both federal teams, one posting the IAP to the FTP the other not. @milehighbar was looking for the IAP.

The California Fire Special 1 broadcastify feed has been up a few days covering the SRF Lightning Complex. It sounds like they may have IAP/205 access since I believe the fire moved command to NIFC, the telltale NIFC ping pong and battery reports are on the feed.

In case they don’t have IAP access, it sounds like they have split the air/grounds between north and south. Additional A/G’s assigned are 171.1125 and 169.4875.
