Hi Guys,
Here is a list of the 2m station components as it stands:

antenna: single M2 that the club owns; the lower one of the two so we have 
the boom guys on it

feedline: Brian N9XO to supply 1/2" hardline (as usual); is this the club line?

mast: I'll bring a tube to use, probably 10' alum

rotator: my G-800

support structure: I thing K4SZ intends for us to use the W4SKI mobile 
tower (need clarification)

rig: K5AND will supply rig w/DSP, my TS-790 will serve as back up (ditto 
for 432 & 1296)

amplfier/power supply: Lunar Link, courtesy of K5AND

extension cord from genset: I have a 50' 10-3 cord

contesting housing: my white elephant trailer, shared w/NX9O

FM station: my FT-100D connected to the newly acquired KMA-4113 antenna on 
the trailer mounted crank-up mast w/some yet un-named rotator (probably a 
HyGain), & 9913 feed line. I plan to also include my Icom PCR-1000 scanning 
receiver for a spotting receiver, sharing the LP antenna with the FM 
station via a PTT controlled lock-out antenna switch.

Thanks,
