Re: [IRCA] WNTP Operating NDA and hrd in IL

["Rene Tetro" <rene@xxxxxxxx>]

No problem, Kaz.   Feel free to send it to other lists.  By the way, it 
looks like tonight will be the last night we will be operating NDA @ 5kw. 
The final part to make the repairs are to arrive tomorrow morning.  I 
received some of them today, but one additional part had to be manufactured, 
so it is taking an extra day.

I'm looking forward to working out in the tuning house tomorrow with the 
predicted 100+ degree temperatures.....NOT!  :-)

73,
Rene'
