Now it's only 2 - 3 sec. between the call and the (slightly) positive RoC.
I have restored the link to the old version in the previous post for your reference. Based on a tip, however, my belief is that the newer version is the accurate timing. I sent a FOIA requiest to the FAA today to get the time tagged audio so that I can know for sure, but that will take a while.
