[MohawkARC] Field Day setup

[Paul Topolski]

Doug,

The request was put in for 18:00, see the attachment.  We do have permission
for the full 48 hours.  If we start impeding traffic in any way then we may
run into problems.  Delivery of the porta-potty, club trailer etc in the
morning is not an issue. Starting to move in additional equipment during the
day is ok, and scoping out the area and selecting antenna locations after
15:00 is fine.  Most of the college business should be concluded by 16:00
and our activity can begin to ramp up with full reign at 18:00. If you want
to start earlier, then next year I can request that.

I work for a no-non-sense, no-bull Chief.  ANYTHING, that puts a bad light
upon the department and college is dealt with SEVERLY.  

Please feel free to call me if you have any other questions.

Paul

Paul, you said after 15:00 and 18:00, when are we safe?

If we're not allowed to start until later our first priority should be to
get the ropes in the trees before we lose daylight.  We can always pull the
antennas up after dark if need be, but it would be really hard to put up
ropes in the dark.  We should also make sure that the 160m dipole is cut
down to 80m ahead of time and all ready to go.  I'm concerned we're not
going to have enough time to set-up the antennas before dark unless we
really work fast.  In the past we've started setting up earlier in the
afternoon and were even pressed for time then. It would be best to avoid
having to set-up antennas on Saturday morning and exhaust ourselves before
we even begin operating.

Doug
