From: The Bradshaw Mountain Middle School now has a ham radio club. Since the school budget does not provide for this, we're in dire need of an HF Rig - ANY VINTAGE, ANY TYPE! If only 5 bands, that's OK. We can also use a wire antenna or even just wire for same. contact Jim, N5RO Email n5ro@arrl.net, Phone 775-8432. Bob Smith, WB6ODR donated a dual-bander and a 70cm beam to the club, and Neil, KA7JAS is giving us 75 ft of coax for HF. Dick Hughes, W6CCD has donated a computer printer (to print message traffic) and an old CB that we're converting to 10 meters. I've donated a dual-band vertical & pole, a power supply for the VHF/UHF rig, coax for the vertical, & numerous other items. A non-ham gave us an old TV for ATV use. We have a donated tower but it's very questionable whether we'll be allowed to put it up. When kids get licensed, we also try to donate a VHF or VHF/UHF radio to the licensee - usually a donated HT but we've been known to fall back on a mobile if that's what's been donated. We'd like to have an HF rig for those who make it to General but so far we haven't received one for the club station.
Listen for us (Club Call Sign KE7QOP) on 147.22 Thursdays from 2:30 to 3:30 MST.
