Hi Kim,

thanks for spearheading the efforts of ordering all the equipment. It was a pleasure to help update some of the technical items on the list! Count me in for moving stuff around and assembling antennas!

If I'm not already committed to other "family stuff", I can help move ham radio "stuff" and assemble antennas.

Attached is an excel spread sheet showing items that have been ordered off of the ARDC grant. Prices have Things that I haven't ordered are "tools",  changed so I had to do some digging to find prices that kept us in budget. I succeeded with about $40 to spare: the grant was for $22983 and with a bit of care I managed $22947.70. There is a cushion of $1850 for S/H built in, along with $4k for tower work. I haven't yet purchased any pulleys or line, nor have I yet purchased any tools. I din;t purchase pre-made jumpers of 3 and 9 feet: we'll fabricate them here.

Volunteers will be needed to help move stuff and assemble antennas. Any takers?
