[SJDXA] The list grows

I just want to say that the response to our coax project has been super!

 

We now have a total of $1,175.00 collected (a small part is pledged) from 25
folks.

 

To date, our expenses total $827.48

 

This leaves us with a balance forward of + $347.52

 

I understand that our bulkhead is "in the works" and we will not need to
purchase barrels for it? But I will confirm this.

 

We may also need regular sized barrels to be attached at the outside ends of
the feedlines. 

And, we will have some relatively short pieces of coax leftover that can be
made into jumpers which are always handy to have around in a variety of
lengths and types. So, we will need more PL259s.

 

Once I have a handle on these items, I think any surplus funds could go for
another roll of low loss coax for any OUTSIDE antenna projects. After all,
we now have plenty of coax feed lines going from the shack to our two
terminal boxes. Yes, many of these will be used for the beverages (which BTW
can and should be used for other any low band usage (ie 80 and 40)). But
also for any other projects we can think of, like a phased vertical on 40,
or maybe a circle 8 RX system? Home made??? 

In any case, this response has been extraordinary. I NEVER expected it.
Also, we had several OBARC members support the project who are not SJDXA
members. So, I expect and hope that OBARC also utilizes the site more WITH
us.  

 

Add to the previous list of supporters:

KE2OI

WA2ACV

W1UL (correction from W2DEC)

WA2SQO

 

 

 

See ya' in the Pileups!

73!
