Today, I rode to and from work with Joel, while Virginia used ‘our car’ to take Joanna to the Payless Supermarket —http:\/\/www.paylessmarkets.com\/<\/a> — for grocery shopping.\u00a0 Here is a weekly sales ad to compare with prices on the mainland — http:\/\/www.paylessmarkets.com\/weekly-ads\/june-06-2014-ad<\/a>\u00a0 The closest Payless store is just over a mile northeast of our apartment on Rt 5 just off of Rt 2A.huge<\/p>\n

The two old Harris SW100s (100,000- watt shortwave transmitters) that were installed in the late 1970s are now being used as standby transmitters and are only used if one of the three more efficient, newer transmitters has a major failure. They have not been utilized for some time, and the water needed to be changed in preparation for some test transmissions coming up next week. With Mike’s help, that was our first task of the day.<\/p>\n

While testing the circuit boards yesterday, the power switch on the lab DC power supply failed in the ‘on’ position.\u00a0 My second task of the day was to replace that switch.<\/p>\n

Charlie sent me some information from Elkhart that will be helpful in investigating some discrepancies in the THF filter of the HC100 here.\u00a0 I was able to successfully download this information for future reference.<\/p>\n

In the afternoon, I helped with getting the second sliding door onto its new track and rollers, then assisted with alignment of both doors.\u00a0 It is no longer a battle to open and close these huge doors!<\/p>\n

Larry carries the 5 gallon jug that he filled with reverse osmosis water disinfected with ultra-violet light. The cost is $1.50 per jug, which is a lot cheaper than bottled water.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"140605<\/a>After work this evening, we made our first trip to the Water Store.\u00a0 Most homes have a 5 gallon jug of purified water for drinking.\u00a0 It sits upside down in a crock pot with a dispenser spout on the side.\u00a0 It is not chilled, or heated, like a lot of office dispensers are that use the same 5 gallon jug.\u00a0 It looks like 5 gallons of water will last us four or five days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
