I'm startin in on it. Gotta re arrange the deck chairs first so I have somewhere to put the 3 racks. I have to move the workbench against the outside wall up to GLo's area. Then the racks go in that space left behind. New wheels on the racks and clean 60 years of crud off.  Then I have somewhere to put the decks as they get reconditioned/built.

I have 2 rf decks and 2 modulators to rebuild and 4 or 5 pow-pow-power supplies to build. Lotta work for anyone. Also 2 receivers to repair and a linyar to test out.

Gotta get the antenna back up as well - gonna use the bow and arrow.... this time I can do it myself.  Smiley

I will Bud.... but the racks have to be out of the way against the wall. Glo needs her space back and I promised her she'd get it. I'll put the ant back up first, then get after the amp.

Had the wx not had us in scramble mode, you could've had 3 more sets of hands there for ant work and whatever else. By the time we got done slogging around at Berryville and had lunch, all we could think about was getting home.   Undecided

Still looking forward to hearing some of that iron on the air. I've decided to get the 240v line in at least for the KW-1 to get that back on the air. The 32V-2 is proving too fickle these days. Once you're on along with Don, Steve, and myself, we should be able to heat up the aether down this way pretty nicely!

I believe we will control the southeast and mid-atlantic with a iron fist....covered in brass knuckles! An RF wall will descend upon the eastern US...... Cheesy
