I’m in San Diego .. and the fault nearest me is more than 100 miles away .. and we’ve already had a 7.1 just a few years ago.

Since I’ve already ridden out a 7.1, with no structural damage, I’m not that concerned.

I was on a 4 month hiatus at home in Idaho when that 7.1 hit. Upon my return, the ride from UTC to El Cajon took me through the EB SR52 to SB SR125 where huge cracks appeared in the transition ramp. Further south, SR 125 between I-8 and SR94 had very long north/south cracks in the roadway. Those were all new from the 7.1. CalTrans eventually fixed the EB SR52 to SB SR125 transition.

If I was "in town" this weekend, the Santee ham swap meet is on starting at 7 AM at the drive-in on Woodside. Many of my old ham buddies gather at the "Ranch House" restaurant 11510 Woodside Ave F, Santee, CA 92071. I won't be down in San Diego again until the evening of Oct 9th for a week with my staff. I've been mulling purchase of a Yaesu FT2DR to update to a digital capable handheld.
