21 jump runs today

Yeah, I really misread that. Must have been tired or something.

And, I would assume that they don't talk to Lincoln there as they are not within their airspace, just announce on the local CTAF.

Weird. I've never noticed that detail. I don't know why they have 128.75 listed. I've been flying jumpers at that dropzone for three years now and I've never used 128.75 for anything, so that gives you an idea of how important it is.

Of course, I don't think we've dropped anyone between midnight and 5:30 a.m. in at least five years, probably longer.

And we announce "jumpers away" on both Lincoln Approach as well as Crete's CTAF.

Hmm, I wonder if I'm at 12k and you're at that or above we could hear each other 200+ miles away.
 
I don't have any other DZ's on my freq within range. 123.00

I do hear stuff in IL, AR, IA ans KS though, just not jumpers.
 
I'll send my contact info here in a bit. If for some reason it doesn't come through just look for the drunk ball during human keg bowling ;)

Also I might jump, but I'm still a little scared of the new canopy.
