[SJDXA] Saturday

[Bob Schenck N2OO]

SJDXA Members;

 

I ordered a large batch of coax and connectors for the site.

It cost me over $700.00

 

I ordered it because we had an opportunity to "install" it this Saturday at
the site.

I have asked SJDXA and W2GD CW Team members to contribute towards this
expense.

I am not asking any specific amounts because everybody has different
financial issues. I understand that.

I will ask everyone to pitch in on this as we will all be sharing these
feedlines.

You can send your contribution to me via PayPal to qslmanager at comcast.net

Or mail me a check. I will NOT be publicizing "amounts".  If for some
unlikely reason, I receive more than the cost, any surplus will go to SJDXA
for other projects at the site.

I am using quality coax, all DX Engineering. Not sure yet how many feedlines
we will pull where. But we SHOULD have plenty of spares available for all
projects.

We are planning to install posts, and boxes at the end of each PVC feedline
runs. We will be installing pull strings, and then sealing the PVC tubes
with "something". Perhaps duct seal or fire stop. This will be done to help
keep critters out of the crawlspace. (It's a start)

 

If any of you will be available Saturday, come down and help. I am "hoping"
for a fairly large contingent at the site from SJDXA and OBARC. Including at
least one "youngster" for crawlspace duty.

 

We also will be repairing the TA33, and investigating the possibility of
building a 40 meter Garden Beam using available material from the site.

 

 

See ya' in the Pileups!

73!
