Today, Virginia moved our things into ‘our apartment’ which is located in Agat, Guam on Route 2 about 200 feet south of its intersection with Route 12.  We are across the road from the ocean, but because our apartment is on the second floor, we have a good view of the ocean.  The sunsets should be amazing! If this link — http://goo.gl/maps/LRofz — works right, our white roofed apartment will be under the point of the green arrow.

Virginia is standing by our apartment on the far right of the top level. The other two apartments are vacant at the moment. The typhoon shutters are closed on our bedroom in an attempt to keep it cooler. The Toyota Highlander that we are using is the vehicle on the far right.

For reference, TWR’s transmitting site is at — http://goo.gl/maps/4vSra

At 7am I left for the transmitting site with Paul and started work at 7:30am.  Devotions are at 8:00am and usually last 15 to 30 minutes, but today the Director of Asia Region for TWR was here and spent a couple hours talking about new developments within TWR.

After the meeting, I helped Mike Sabin, the chief engineer, tune up the HC100 on an out-of-band frequency that he had been unsuccessful in tuning.  This frequency will be tested later this week for use in broadcasting in cases of emergencies, such as major typhoons, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, etc.  This is being done in cooperation with a large network of stations in many countries.

This afternoon, Mike gave me an inside tour of the Thomson 250,000-watt shortwave transmitters.

Later, I began to do some rewiring to facilitate a major move of the old Harris transmitters that should be taking place next week.

It was nice to come home to our own place this evening, and supper prepared by Virginia!
