He has become very supportive of the project and is now offering more support. I have received his permission to hold the keys to the site until the project is complete.<br>Tim is offering to get an arborist to the site to remove some trees that may cause some shading to the panels.<br>The equipment rack was measured up today, and unfortunately the blue cabinet is too tall to fit into the hut. Therefore, the mini-rack that I built, (which is at the Clubrooms) will now be pressed into service, but a new solar control panel will need to be built. I have Tim&#8217;s permission to mount it on the wall above the repeater rack.<br>Today I spoke with Andrew VK5VKC, who will ask his boss if we can borrow a 15m cherry picker, as the mono-pole is 12m high and we may be able to do our own antenna work. This activity has been pre-approved by Tim VK3TIM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/serg.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Hut-at-Mt-Richmond.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/serg.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Hut-at-Mt-Richmond.jpg 600w, https:\/\/serg.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Hut-at-Mt-Richmond-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Mt Richmond home to VK3RSW with its new face<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here are some notes from Peter.
