RE: What The.... Noooooooo!
I have found that altitude is your friend when there is a momentary glitch. When it happens just floor the throttle and you should recover fine, if power is restored, that is. No matter what height you are, up is better than down. As you said, you were able to recover when this happened at a higher altitude. It has only happened to me once about 2 ft off the ground. The other times have been 50+ ft which gave plenty of time to recover. All of mine have been the typical 1/4 second hits though, nothing prolonged.
Aren't CBs on the AM band and DFs on the FM band?
