Gents,
Can any of you help me to put the steppir back up next weekend?? I need four folks minimum, preferably five. Should take an hour or so.? Maybe we could get lunch before or after.?
?
I’d like to shoot for Saturday, but Sunday would also work for me.? Long range forecast looks good (sunny, but a bit chilly) both days.

Thanks,

Re: FW: [SARA] Demodulated HAARP Transmissions for Asteroid Bounce Experiment
Oh, how cool it would have been to have heard that in realtime! Thanks for sharing the recordings. The recorded sweeps sounded much further apart than 0.5sec; was the astroid travelling away?
Eddie and gang, that will be a great QSL card!
Nick, KI4YSP
Yes that is what I heard. Cool.

It has a short somewhere in the cable/reflector control unit that I need to get it down to sort out.? Same drill as taking the antennas down after Field Day—pull one section at a time from the rocket launcher mast until it drops from 35 ft to 10 ft, then pop off the top piece with antenna and rotor attached.? Should take an hour or less.? But I need a critical mass of 5 folks. I’ll pick a day when it’s within the window of the 10 day forecast and hopefully choose a day we can count on good WX.? Dave UW
