         Nice job, Don! I had too many distractions to try to uncover rigs 
and re-route cables, but one day hope to have the VHF side of the shack 
back up and functional and a few antenna back up as well. I heard other 
club members were on, including K5QE (w/ W5WZ and KN5O as visiting ops), 
K5RUS, and N5HMH. Glad you guys are keeping things going on the higher bands.

         Look forward to seeing you at the Slidell club meeting on July 16. 
Guess I better verify the meeting time and post that to the reflector so 
everybody can plan to participate.

Take care and 73,
Mark, K5ER
