I think I've got enough names to use up all the dishes now. I'll load 
them all into the trailer and may even have to make two trips. I'm not 
going to "assign" the dishes, it will be "first-come-first-served" for 
those who requested one. A couple people would like a second dish but 
not until everyone else gets their first one.

Go ahead and inspect the dishes and choose the one you want. If there 
are any left after 11AM, please make them disappear. I covered the rear 
of the waveguide to keep the bugs and water out so you will need to 
remove that. But also be aware that sometimes the screws in the 
waveguide flange broke rather than come off nicely. If you are not going 
to use the dish on 24GHz, perhaps you can grab one of those rather than 
another.

The following people requested a dish:
Ed NB0M
Jim K0MHC
Scanner N0KP
Paul WA0RSE
Bill KC0INQ
Paul W0UC
Jerry K0CQ
Bud W0LCP
Lloyd N9LB
Bruce W9FZ

If there is any extra space in the trailer, I'll throw in some of the 
equipment boxes used with the dish. They are stripped, but do mount on 
the back nicely.

73, Doug Reed, N0NAS.
