Donn,

I have a 10 GHz dish that I recently acquired from KB9PJL that I had hoped 
to bring over on Saturday to test; however I agree that the weather does not 
look too favorable. Should the range be postponed, I definately would not be 
able to make the June 15 date as I have a wedding back in Caledonia that 
day.  At this point I'm not sure about the other two dates you mentioned (I 
think they are open), but June 15th would definately be out for me.

Charlie, N0AKC
