The area that gets a good salt water soaking is where our low band arrays will be located, and should provide great signals to most of the world. For the West Coast and Central US, we will also set up at Spit Bay – on the other side of the volcano (Mawson Peak or Big Ben), and about 20 miles southeast of where this video was filmed.
