Hi all,

I'll be up in Illinois on the 24th, so I can't make the meeting.

I'll summarize what's been going on with GPS. Chris and I have started 
servicing the GPS monuments. CVMS and STLE have been repainted, and radome 
replacements are underway.

I've sent word to our contact at CVMS that we plan to change our wireless 
setup there. We'll need to run a new Cat-5e cable from our receiver to 
inside the school. Hopefully, it'll fit in the same conduit as CVTN's cable.
Our contact has received the email, but hasn't replied. The school itself 
doesn't appear to use wireless anything, so there's no problem with 
interference.

MAIR is still offline. There's been no word from the property owner about 
his plans for the site. After this semester is over, I'm planning a reconn 
trip to scout the other businesses around the Mississippi County Airport for 
Internet access. Failing that, we'll likely look into getting the phone 
turned back on. I'd also like to see if we can possibly get MAIR onto the 
seismic backbone.

Our proposal for a wireless radio link and Internet access has been sent to 
STLE's schools. Still no word from them.

Our proposal to the Maury County Schools for a twelth station at McDowell 
Elementary in Columbia, TN, is ready, but I have the wrong email address to 
send it to :p I'll need to check with Chris to make sure I have the correct 
info.

The location of PIGT, the city water plant in Piggott, Arkansas, is getting 
wireless Ethernet installed. I've spoken with the provider and gotten 
permission to put our site on it for free (Bob's favorite word). He'll 
install the WAP, and guys on-site will run the cables. He'll let me know 
when we're ready to roll. Once Internet's available, I'll install a NetRS 
and take PIGT down to one-second.

CJTR (North Little Rock) needs two visits. The first to check the hardware 
and get contact info, and the second to see about getting CJTR onto the 
Internet, also. The site might need its battery replaced.
My contact info for Camp Robinson is too old, and their website(s) appear 
deliberately hard to figure out. We'll need to ask someone on-site and get 
some new names and numbers.
A good number of Guardsmen from Camp Robinson are still deployed overseas 
and in Louisiana. I'm not expecting rapid results at CJTR.

RLAP is still as it was. The new security gate for the airport has been 
installed, but isn't being used, yet. Work on the terminal building is still 
at a standstill. I'm still downloading data from on-site.
Bob's just going to have to bite the bullet and buy an IP address at RLAP. 
Savings in long-distance calls to CJTR and PIGT would more than pay from an 
IP.
