RE: RELAY STAFFING SHORTAGE

Following the disappearance of DISPATCH CARL, staffing at the relay has become difficult to maintain. Two replacement candidates withdrew their applications after touring the facility. Recommend the network continue operating with reduced or no on-site staff, as transmission activity has shown no measurable change in operator absence.
