Hi Dave, as a side note I have found the missing bit for that 5/8 wave 2 meter antenna?

 

[weekender]

Dave I can't see a link?

 

[Damascus]

Weekender, Have a look on the old time reel link, I have checked the link from here it seems to work ok, maybe cos I used my iPad to send it.

rick, sweet, get that up and running, I will make a coax up need to get some 259 connectors on Monday.

Mandos, why don't you bring both and try them out, one each night.


this one is for everyone,
are we going to do a big meal, I think Friday we can muddle through as we will all be arriving at different times etc and do a large one on Saturday. Rick if you bring you chuck box I will bring mine and cook some thing up.

next question is what, suggestions please, I am happy to cook the meal....................

This looks good:-

No Cornbread mix so here is how you make it:-

-1 cup cornmeal
-1 cup all purpose flour
-1 tablespoon baking powder
-1 egg
-pinch of salt
-milk or buttermilk; enough to make a medium thick batter (IF! If you use buttermilk, add 1 teaspoon of baking soda in addition to the baking powder)
-1 tablespoon of cooking oil

Dave also need 4ft non condutive weather sealed stand off for the antenna. or the radials will get in the way.

 

[Damascus]

Ok rick, let me get my thinking cap on!!!!

 

[rickyamos]

maybe get away with a bit less if the standoff is vertical, as if mounting on the barn the antenna needs to be at least a quarter wave away from metal objects. Will also bring a VSWR meter for 2m/70cm

 

[Mandos]

May i suggest something like this http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipe/cowboy-chicken-bean-stew and maybe make it so each person brings one item for the meal so its not left to one person ?

You'll be lucky to get a discount off the twins that own it. There dads called Arkwright for a reason. He's got the Brown shop coat as well

Hopefully I still will make the Friday/ Saturday. All depends on a forthcoming hospital appointment. If I do make it I'll be self catering.

Ok GT hope all goes well

kev, the shop will only do minimum of £10 per transaction over the phone and at £2:50 a reel, I don't need four hence if any one else wanted one?

 

[Crowe]

No promises. I will try. Will be great to see you all.

[rickyamos]

Is Kev coming?

 

[Damascus]

Not sure, Kev is you a coming!!

 

[Damascus]

Anyone interested in those retro reels then?

 

[weekender]

Not for me thanks I've just bought a hand reel.

 

[Whittler Kev]

No sorry shan't make it as not started new treatment yet. Do you want me to see about one of the reels? Get it whenever I see you or if someone drops by to get it?

 

[Damascus]

No worries Kev, get better soon and the reels, I will get them to post, I have enough numbers to make it worth while, thanks.

Thinking about getting a SnugPak hammock & quilts for the meet up.
If I don't get a chance to play with it first would someone be able to offer guidance if I struggle to pitch it?
