[TAC] Meeting, etc

[hank k8dd]

Wednesday the 15th is the next TAC meeting.
7:30PM at E.G. Nicks - the meeting place has been changed so
Tim W8JJ can attend.
E.G. Nicks website is http://www.egnicks.net/egn/lapeer/index.htm
The location is http://www.egnicks.net/egn/lapeer/location.htm

Now for the etc ......
I am going to be placing an order with The Original Wireman for some
center insulators, wire and coax.

The center insulators are #809 - Budwig dipole center - the old
standard HQ-1. Simple, lightweight, effective, low profile, center OR
antenna support, SO239 input, the mate to p/n 810.  They are $10.60
each

The coax I'm getting is 113PE
                                                 500FT    1000FT
113PE 213 CQ DIRECT BURY     0.770      0.729
Truly Direct Bury RG213 type coax, with water block and 20 year,
impermeable, UV resistant, tough, scuff-proof jacket
It is 1 cent more than the 110 coax - that's $1 per hundred ft!
110 coax is described as:
'The Amateur's 213', better than MIL-SPEC, with finer, denser,
lower-angle braid, greater flexibility and true NCV jacketing.

At this point I'm ordering 500 ft, (77 cents per ft), but if any of
you guys want some, and it is close to an additional 500 ft, I'll get
the 1000 ft roll.      Bring money, checks or your first born* to the
meeting Wednesday or call me on the phone.
