Last nights news

[scubadetector]

Ok folks. I was diving yesterday and when I was on the way home I noticed I missed a call from Jason Carr of Channel 2 news. He said it was going to be aired at 10:00. I couldn't get back in time to let people know so here is a link to it if anyone is interested.

G'day SD
just watched the show... good stuff.
I noticed you don't appear to have earholes cut in your hood.
The couple of times I tried diving with a complete hood I found the headphones kept slipping off and also found that the signals were too muffled and faint.
Luckily I have heaps of old suits around so took a suitable jacket and cut holes for my ears.
Probably look a bit of a goose with white ears poking out of a black suit but once I put the phones on they sit nice and snug and the signals come through loud and clear. No noticable water movement or freezing ears either.
Am I the only diver detector who does this? Just curious.

Cheers Lou.

Your the man....Although I think I might had jackslapped the guy who took the wallet and didnt say thank you. What a nice guy you are.

Fantastic story Bob, thanks again for your being a great Ambassador for our hobby. Looks like you really enjoy your hunting trips, and that is the best reward you can have in life, enjoying what you do as a job or hobby. Thanks for sharing. HH

Thanks for all the replies!! Wow, makes a person feel special. Anyway, downunder, I do have holes in my hood. They are about the size of a nickle though. Not big, but big enough that they work.

Perhaps you are the polite type, like Jean LaFitte, he NEVER claimed to be a pirate, "just a privateer". I am coming around, but these 2 have now gone home to their owners, 4 still pending. One of the 2, left on Tuesday of this week inbound for home.

That was a really good watch. Thanks for the link and thanks for doing so much to put our hobby in a good light. Way too much negative public opinion of us over the years. Well done.
