Another ghost in the machine this morning or just high usage? Getting lots of stops and starts for some reason?

We think the cloud cover has something to do with it. The AMA IT guy is on his way. I'm trying other work arounds.

It's back up now - now with audio too. Helis are flying right now.

Jim B. just said that the wind and rain blew away everything that wasn't tied down (speakers, their tent, chairs, etc!).

3:21 EST - Down again (Media Player feed)

I'm going to call it. I think the storm blew out the amplifier we just replaced before the storm. We are continuing to cover the event and will upload video throughout the week.
Thanks to all our viewers and RCGroups.com users.

Mr. Jim T. Graham and partners:
I know I speak for me and all of my fellow modelers here in México (And other countries too) when I say thank you for the live broadcasting of the XFC (And you know well how many of us from the international community were there online). You and your crew took us near our competitors as hardly anyone else could. You're the kind of person who makes this site close personal, unique and warm welcoming.
Keep with this good work. Ever since I and a lot of us discovered this web site, think twice before consulting any other RC related websites.
Best regards to all the radiocontrol community.
Greetings from México.

I know it says 2006 over the top but it is really 2007.

To Oliver and all of Team Mexico
It was very cool to have Team Mexico at the XFC and also to interact with our RCGroups.com Mexico forum users live online. Manuel and I have known each other since last year and Carlos was a gentleman (he also has an twin - inside joke). Thanks for watching the live feed and being a part of RCGroups.
VIVA MEXICO!
