[SJDXA] Work Party report

[Bob Schenck N2OO]

Jeff,

I think I like this idea. A 250 foot roll would be much easier to handle, and quite reasonable.

Can we use regular PVC connectors with this pipe if needed? 

 

Regards,

Bob Schenck, N2OO

Just for information. A 250 ft. reel of 1 1/2 poly irrigation pipe from Central Irrigation Suppy 

in Lakewood is $ 108.00 each or .44 per foot. PVC SCH80 conduit is 107.73 per 100 ft. or

1.08 per foot. I have no problem donating a share of the funds needed to "git ur done" before frost season.

I actuality, we are pretty much out of money so I am looking at alternatives. I’ll know more later

All,

 

In my work at the county we used both 20ft sections of thinwall direct bury conduit and/or black irrigation pipe/tubing.

I have a 1000ft roll of # 10 copper wire that we can use to put in fish rope. The irrigation pipe is usually a faster install.

If anyone can get a landscapers quote it could save on cost.

We spent the first 1 1/2 hours in the shed rearranging everything. Since OBARC was unable to schedule their shed cleanup yesterday, we decided to do it ourselves in order to be set for the 160 crew coming in soon and so that SJDXA items could be accessed.  

Next we measured distances out to and between towers so we can figure out our pvc needs for feedlines and rotor cable runs.   

 

We will need much more help in order to get our projects going so..... watch for more updates.  We only have about one month left. 

 

In particular we will need to dig a shallow trench for burying 1 1/2” pvc to each tower. We will also need to buy and get the pvc. Then pull everything into boxes or the building. 

 

If we don’t get everything done in the next several weeks, we’ll be having to wait until Spring. 

 

Soooooo.  Any suggestions?

None of us are getting any younger.  😮
