To update  regarding our 30 foot dish project:
   The Black Hills Amatuer Radio Club is fully behind an effort to procure
equipment necessary to 
activate the large dish at our club site.  Work has already begun to clean up
the site and prepair 
for operations to begin.  The dish pedestal is mounted on a concrete reinforced
building with a 
10 foot square room at the bottom for equipment.  This may be a little cramped
but I would rather
see it stuffed full rather than empty. Hopefully we will have something running
in time for the June 
VHF contest. We will no doubt use what we have to start with which will probably
be on 2 meters, 432, 
and possibly 10ghz..  I am hopeful that many of our club members become very
active in the vhf and 
above activities that this project will spawn.  All you sporting big guns out
there keep us in mind in June
 with hopes of spawning more activity in the future from western SD. 
We have started an activity email reflector for this project. If you would like
to send a message to our reflector
