The weather was fine and clear, which made it possible to work safely on the antenna feedlines while up on a ladder outside, a task shouldered mostly by Paul / ZS1S, assisted by Danny / ZS1BL and Noel.
Inside the clubhouse, Rob / ZS1SA, Hylton / ZS1HPC and Nick / ZS1ZD started going through the vast pile of documents and files that stretch back into the dim mists of time. The plan here is to remove unnecessary paper yet also to retain those items of historical interest.
Decisions are being made w.r.t. antennas and other equipment in need of maintenance and repair, a process which will continue at the following work party. We are also deciding what to do with the pictures (both framed and unframed) on the one side wall above the operating position. We will also be sorting through the lockable store room area that its space be used more effectively.
Also present were Barry / ZS1FJ, Tony / ZS1TK, Richard / ZS1RIC and Ian / ZS1OSK. Grateful thanks to all who pitched up to assist.
We will be doing further antenna maintenance work on Saturday 1 August, starting at 10h00.
