[SMCARA] Antenna Party

[Daniel Metcalf]

on the tower at the museum? If it can not be done before the end of July
should we set something up to evaluate the antennas (make sure they are
still is operating order) we currently have in place to make sure that
Stacy and the group she is putting together can use the station effectively
on the 27th?
