AN APPEAL TO THE USERS OF SBARC SYSTEMS
By: Bill Talanian, w1uuq@sbarc.org
SBARC Telecommunications Services maintains five major locations consisting of various repeaters, digital and remote systems. The most popular system is the 146.79 repeater at our Mesa site. It is also the only location requiring routine grounds maintenance to keep the vegetation from totally taking over. Over the years we have managed to get by with the technical support people keeping the grass cut back. It is time to rethink and formalize a more organized plan to maintain the 1500 sq ft zone at the site. A three to four person team would be ideal on a quarterly basis in performing the yard maintenance. Ensuring the vegetation is cut back will minimize the fire danger to the public safety systems and is our responsibility. Ideally a small team organized independently to oversee the site would be best as opposed to chasing around looking for people to help. If you would like to head up the a team then get in touch so we can put you and your team on the restricted access list. A walk-thru can be arranged.
