Getting the wires organized

While getting some of the station wiring organized, it seems that we lost (misplaced) Joe. Oh well, he will show up sometime.

Where's Joe

 

Antenna work is complete!

The antenna is up working well. A great beautiful day with very little wind and the sunshine was so warm. Brian Burton and Matt Bressler took the time out of their very busy schedules and climbed the 160 foot tower at the location of the radio station. From on the tower they were able to look for miles around Kane as they struggled to place the antenna and fix a problem with the cable for the antenna. Brian had to come back down because of some tools that they needed to finish the job. Kevin Custer from West PA Net was there to help with moral and technical support for Brian and Matt. With a thumbs up from Kevin the job was done and the tower climbers climbed back down off the tower to receive refreshments and food. Unfortunately, there was one fatality from the antenna work, and that was a Baofang Ham Radio of Brian's. The radio jumped out of Brian's bag and dropped every so calmly until the abrupt stop on the ground. Tom Orzetti and Judy Orzetti from That Natural Store found all parts of the fatal radio crash. Tom resurrected the radio and it seems that it will survive for another fall on another day. Joe Szymanski (The Cable Guru) and Jim Greville (The Refreshment Guru) from The Photo & Sound Shoppe also assisted in the festivities.



 

Joe finds new transmitter

Old Radio

Joe (our president) has dug up and drug home, a "new" (sort of) transmitter for our station. He feels that this unit will bring us up to date with our equipment. We are not sure where he found it, but let's hope that he was paid for taking it off of their hands. The rest of the board feels that something newer is in order. so please keep those donations coming.

 

Equipment Donations

WXZY Radio has just received a donation of a complete mobile radio remote. This unit will be used to go to different businesses and organizations and stream live events for on air activities. The contributor would like to remain anonymous. The equipment is pictured below. We believe the equipment would be fully functional, however not quite state of the art. We are not quite sure how much life is left in the transport mechanism. Also, when scheduling a remote, please have several carrots available for Marti. Thank you for all your support.
