Thank you Elliot - Sink water pressure has slowly been diminishing last couple months. I cleaned the head-aerator but still no good. I saw that quick connect earlier, but was like, "that connector cant be slowing down my pressure" :) Well, I removed it and indeed it was severely clogged. A little different model for me, I "gently" had to drill out the filter guts because hammering on that connector is not wise:) Water pressure returned at over 100%!!!!!! Thank you so much for posting your experience!

Why speak so quickly? Speak at a steady speed in a clear voice and other traffic will be less likely to misunderstand the transmission.
@Mr299X
@Mr299X 17 дней назад
​@@bruceerwin5430sure, for the most part i agree, but if someone misunderstood something i said they'll ask. The calls are general and just alerts for aircraft listening inbound. However, there is no traffic around the airport when i let jumpers out based on traffic displayed on board and ATC's radar. The biggest problem is that radios are not required, so those not participating will never understand what I'm saying or have any clue what's happening around them. Also, i played it back again and it sounds fine. If you think that is fast, you're not a pilot or have never operated in busy airspace.
