I will chat with you about this when I get back from SFO. As you may guess, I
had a nice time at KSM.
But I have some stuff to conribute to CAP, for I was there a couple of weeks
ago and had the same reaction you had.

Subject: [sarcmembers] help for Civil Air Patrol
Folks
I know I might get in trouble for mentioning another group here, and if I do,
I won't do it again. One of our members, KI6ZAN, has taken over the decrepit
communications room for the Civil Air Patrol in Santa Maria. I visited them
tonite and I would like to volunteer my time to help them. They have radios and
antennas. George Bernard was kind enough to donate a nice diamond VHF antenna
to them. What they need is some 50 ohm coax, a +12V power supply, and a rotor.
These are all items that the SARC does not need, so I don't feel like I am
stealing from the flock.
Some newer 50 ohm coax in lengths of about 50 feet or more are needed.
LMR-400 or 9913, 9914 etc would be nice. I know that heliax is available but
does me no good without the connectors.
A 15 Amp or better 12V supply is needed. Any rotor that works would probably
work. They are a 501(c) (3) organization.
If anybody can help or know of somebody that can, please leave me a message
at 805 934 0077 so we don't tie up the reflector.
Thanks
Dave KA6BFB
