    I never heard from you so you may not have gotten the email below.  I am resending from my Moog address.  Please let me know that you get this.

    Henry called me back and said that the antenna is in stock at Tessco.  His cost is $729.02 and he will make a one time donation to the club and hold the cost to $500.00.  (Procom will donate the difference between 729 + shipping and the $500.00)  So the club will get billed $500.00 for it.  I will kick in $100.00 as a donation so we are looking at $400.00 for it.

    Please let me know if it is OK to proceed and I will get him to order it and make arrangements to get it hung.  It will take a couple weeks to get it running so the lease date will probably start Sept 1st with Eddie.

    I have finally caught up with Henery at Procom and will have you some info for the meeting tonight.  I thought I would make it tonight but it looks like I will be tied up at work so I will forward it on to you as soon as he lets me know.  He is getting me a final price on the antenna and delivery.  (I twisted his arm to make a donation so he will discount it some more for us)  The repeater seems to work ok with the exception of some noise in the receiver.  I am pretty sure I can tune it out so we should be set.  Henry puts a value of $2000.00 on it with the controller for insurance purposes.  Edwin Whitelaw has agreed to climb and help us hang the antenna when we are ready.  He has some work to do up there in the next few weeks so if all works out we can turn it on in the next few weeks.

    I wanted to get a message out to you about Donnie's wife Diane.  She is in Radford hospital with a bad internal infection so you might want to tell anyone who might want to know and could help Donnie out.
