PARK Board Meeting


 

Sorry I had to drop out - needed to take my little guy to bed. 8p is his time.

Is there an update on getting a new power supply for Field Day radio kit #2.

I need to get the QSL information for those who sent us QSLs for the Member Activation Contest so I can send return QSLs.
So if they can be brought to the September Meeting, I can pick them up there.


A thought on the club storage - I would just sign up for one month to start- to see exactly how much space the collected gear takes up.
Because, depending on the ceiling height, and stackability, a 5x5 is not just 25 square feet, but a 5x5 x 8 (With 28" deep shelves on the side and back wall = over 200 SF of storage space plus multiple corners to store tall masts and poles. Will it fit? I dunno. But either way, we're going to need shelving.
And a lock -
Locks to not use:

Looking back at the rates I posted back in July, I see Legacy self storage has an interesting 5' x 7.5' interior space. If we can utilize a third shelving unit, that's 300 SV of shelf space. And it's indoors. and it's $45

Michael is verifying the cost of a climate controlled 10x10 space at a U-Haul storage on Plano Parkway.? And looking if there is a discount for paying in advanced.? The plan after he verifies the cost is to take it to the membership at next week's meeting.?
Michael, comments?

I've attached my research from today.? I will call the offices this week.
?
I limited my search to 75 - 100 square feet, climate control and trying to strike a balance between access and price.? I also tried to stay within ~5 miles of the Methodist Church.
