Thanks Cliff. So sounds like it is more of an intermittent issue than a complete black out.

The NOTAM covers many hours of the day but they will let potentially affected areas know fifteen minutes in advance. For the Great Basin area you can contact Clover Center, the folks that over see the Sevier and Gandy MOA's and Restricted areas with the Utah Test Range on 134.1 to see if they have received any notices or if you are experiencing an outage you can contact them for duration.

The maps and affected areas published are very broad and are more CYA than accurate. During the Nationals at Nephi this year the folks from Clover were able to ensure us that the Great Basin was not likely to be affected from the testing from White Sands and China Lake. The testing done north of Las Vegas and the Utah Test Range are the ones most likely to cover the Great Basin area.
