In Oman we had two bases, and a microwave shot from one to t'other, dead flat ground all around - apart from a big lump of rock in the way, about 80' high, and 400' long. So we set up a rebroadcast site here - one receiver and one transmitter, powered by a little genny that needed refuelling every 26-28 hours or so (so it was a daily job for someone!). One day the link died, and we nipped out to find the problem - some tuu@t had put the wrong fuel in. The four of us that had to manhandle a new genny up, and the old one back down were cursing for a long time after
Good news about the mp3 player, did you have to dig it out of a dead dog, was it soaked, did it still work?
