like this.
Perhaps the moderator of this forum could comment ??

Howdy all & welcome to PiPa#221! (This is just the cover sheet, PiPa #2=
21
should either be an attached file to this or should follow right after =
my
own greetings & name).
This issue's a few weeks late & I'm desperately trying to catch up with=

everything. Hey, I knocked a day off of this one! Expect the next issue=

(#222) in the next few days.
I'll be in New England at the Boxboro (NW Boston) hamfest this coming
weekend 8/29-8/30 with Hobby Broadcasting. If you're there, I hope to s=
ee
you! For other hamfest events that we'll be at, see the HB events page =
on
the Hobby Broadcasting Web site.
        The next (Fall) issue is back from the printer and should be
available via subscription in late August and on the newsstands in earl=
y
September. Some of the features include a "toolkit" for starting a
cable-access TV program, digging up rare early movies and television
progams
for rebroadcasting, information concerning the recent shutdowns of Free=

Radio Berkeley and Radio Mutiny, the FCC's criminal case against Lonnie=

Kobres, A review of the Broadcast Warehouse 1-watt transmitter, modifyi=
ng
an
inexpensive amateur TV transmitter for commercial TV channels, a look b=

at Radio Free Naptown, building dipole antennas for the AM band, and mo=

        For a sample of HB (a year's sub is $12), send $3 in the US ($4=

PIRATE SHIP ELECTRA PROJECT SCUTTLED! [Another radio ship project has
failed]. NASWA member  Doug Robertson of Oxnard, CA sent a copy of a no=
tice
of a U.S. Marshal's sale in the U.S. District Court for the So. Distric=
t of
Georgia (Savannah Division) of the "Offshore Radio Broadcast Station Tu=
g
'Electra,'" an "all welded steel, model bow, capstan towboat fitted wit=
h a
complete radio broadcast station, including radio tower."  For addition=
al
info or an appointment for inspection, contact H. David Scott, Southeas=
tern
Marine Surveying Co., 912-233-4157, FAX 912-238-0821.  It was to be sol=
d to
the highest bidder on July 15 at 10:00 a.m. by the U.S. Marshal. [I cal=
led
the SE Marine Surveying Company and they said it sold for around $35,00=
0 at
auction. Chris Lobdell.]
The ship ran into another boat on the way down, and there were some
lawsuits
involved.  Also, the preacher that was financing it ran out of money.
Neither Scott nor Allan [Weiner] was on the ship when any of that happe=
ned,
nor did they have any involvement with the problems that caused the Fed=
s to
come.  Allan has been working on his land-based stn, and Scott was down=
 in
the Caribbean until a month or so ago.  They both got paid by the preac=
her
for all the work they did, so, other than the fact that the ship they
worked
so hard on won't be on the air, they both made out okay on the deal.
[Thanks
to Anita McCormick & Doug Robertson for info!]
