10 meters
Jay,
Looks like it will be a seperate shack. The space above the garage was
only 4 ft at the peak (somebody (not me) needs his eyes checked!). The
room in the basement: Got a much better look at it in the afternoon. Lots
of light comes in the window in that part of the day. Room is only 10×11 –
would be very very cramped!! Should know 100% next week if the move will
be taking place (right now 90+% sure).
Labour for building the shack is free (mine). Just a matter of paying for
the materials. But want it to look half decent on the outside. I think a
hardwood floor is out of the question <GRIN>. I will appreciate having
much shorter cable runs for 144 and 430 MHz.
Air conditioning will most likely be of the open window variety.
Now I have to decide if I shold spend some money on a CD-ROM drive. Was
one advertised in yesterdays paper for CDN$350 – a used NEC CDR-77. Seems
like a good price, but will probably have to replace my A2090A controller
(add more $$).
73, Kelly
