<tr><td>Comments:<td>I'll need a tower-climbing partner (or two!) to help 
get the dish antenna (<20 kg, but bulky) up the tower,
and to help mount it.  It will also be helpful to have
one LTER employee available back at Shirley House. 
<P>
The dates and times are pretty malleable, but if I 
could write the script I would arrive Wednesday to
set up things at Shirley House; spend the night; 
go to South Hog early Thursday (with Brandon or 
Josh as at least a half-day helper); and optionally
spend the night and return to South Hog on Friday if
needed. 
<P>
We may well discover on Thursday that we need to 
replace batteries on Friday.  In that event, I would
definitely want a muscular helper.  Dr. Porter may
be available Friday.
