Shoot--I wish I had known this couple of days earlier. Was just out there
picking up all the radios and chargers. I'd have grabbed it and repaired it at
the same time. Maybe I can grab it when I take the radios back out and fix up
the week before the next launch.
On the radio front--Veni and I spent a day tearing them down, cleaning them up,
out, and I even fabricated a part to repair that pesky broken charger. Happy
to report ALL radio's are now in good working order and tested.
I've also ordered more speakers for the PA--they will be here mid-week. I hear
there's a project Richard wants to do that sounds interesting.
