For those interested, there’s a fair amount of traffic on the SoHum Scanner especially air tankers coming and going, Also, there seems to be a decent radio “path” to Fortuna from the Hoopa area, which would make sense due to the dispatch center for both CalFire and the Forest service is at Fortuna. Possibly a “directional” antenna aimed there from one of the peaks around Hoopa.
