Thanks Milton, I didn't realise you'd already removed yours! Does removing this plate on the Flea 2 also void the warranty?

I don't think so. I think they have a guide about removing filters on the PGR web site. Ask their tech support if your not sure about warranty issues.

You've got me thinking as we had about 4 enormous dust storms last month-picked up by cold fronts in the central deserts. It may have been a freak of the season, though...?!

The area west of me is being developed, so they have stripped off the prairie grass and exposed bare dirt for a housing development. When the winds here gust up to 90 kmph the sky turned brown and visibility dropped to about 100 meters due to dust, especially since we had no rain at all for 6 weeks this summer.

TTYL..
