VSAT install, Cleveland, Tennessee. This VSAT system
on a 33' roof required us to rent a 40' boom arm in order
to get safe access to the roof. System went in without a
hitch, just after sunset. We acted on this call a mere 24
hours after it came into us.

Service Call, Marquette, Michigan. This is probably
one of my most memorable service calls. I was on
site at this state owned marina on the shore of Lake
Superior. In mid June the weather was spectacular,
highs in the low 60's and no humidity. I will
certainly take service calls and installations on the
upper peninsula anytime during the summer
months. As for the problem. This is a state owned
facility that uses it's system for reservations at the
marina, as well as Internet connectivity. The call
came in late in the afternoon before. I ended up
flying up the night before (633 NM flight) in order to
be on site the next morning. It is a shame that I was
back home for dinner the evening that this picture
was taken. Maybe a vacation to this most excellent
location, and site is in order.

Wireless Network, Mt. Vernon, Illinois. This installation was for a wireless
access point in an automotive service center (in the above picture the
access point and the RED router are my work, I cannot take credit for the
spaghetti wires for everything else). This job required me to add to the
network 8 computers, two tablet PC's and a couple of printers. With
customer education, it took 8 hours.

Weather Wire Service Call,
Florence, Alabama. This call
came in, and I was on site in
less than 3 hours. The system
that I was sent to repair
downloads (off the white dish
in the background) for weather
warnings, and civil alert
messages for the emergency
managers to dispatch the
proper warnings and
emergency responders. The
picture of the inside is the
situation room, the other side
of the wall is the 911 call
center for Lauderdale county.
Some sites are more critical
than others, I certainly call this
one critical.

Mammoth Cave National Park,
Kentucky. This is a complete
installation of a 1.8 meter (6 foot) dish
antenna for the ranger station at the
Job Corps center (located on the
opposite side of the park from the cave
entrance) The install took two days
largely in part to the pole having to set
in concrete overnight. The dish sits on
top of a 5.66" schedule 80 pole, that is
9' long and weighs 210 lbs. It took a
hole 4' deep and 5 bags of concrete to
set it in place. This was a replacement
system for a Direcway system, the park
will be using this system for VoIP as
well as data services, something not
easily done on a HNS system. By the
way, the wiring on the wall is NOT ours,
it is what is left of the HNS system. Our
wiring is buried and in conduit to the
point of entry into the building.
