We had a productive work session of the Committee on Saturday, March 8th. We worked on coax routing from the station location in the Electronics Lab to the chimney. We also got two runs of coax ready to pull including weather proofed connectors on the chimney ends. Progress was also made on the port through the Lab wall for temporary antenna experimenting.
I made a budget request of the MakeICT Board of Directors in support of the grounding system of our antenna installation. It may be considered at their next meeting on March 20th. We asked for $275. Fingers crossed.
I have put two events on the MakeICT calendar. The first is an operating session on Monday, March 10th as a part of the Maker Monday process. The second is for our next official work session on Saturday, March 29th at 1:00 PM in the Electronics Lab.
I will be attending my first Area Leads/Committee Chairpersons meeting on Monday March 10th. I will Freeport’s out on our progress to date and near term plans. I will post here if there is any news form the meeting.
