office equipment purchase was an office chair ($200) 

The total for technical repairs was $3,144.12, with $2,150 spent 
on audio equipment repair.  Of this about $350 was used to 
replace broken styli, and about the same again to repair the 
turntables in Studio A.  A new sneeze guard and slip wedge was 
designed and installed ($275) and should less the wear on these 
units. 

The balance of audio repair expense was made up of repairs to 
the EELA (on-air) board ($260), VCR logger maintenance ($50), 
and a equipment cleaning and overhaul in December and August 
($900). 

$500.80 was spent on transmitter maintenance, $350 on connectors,
batteries and wires, and $133.92 on computer repairs.

Major technical purchases include two new Windows 98 compliant 
computers and upgrades to the units in Studio A, Studio B and 
the Archive room. ($4,350).  The expense was covered by  
donations and a rental fee received from the Full Moon Over 
Killaloe project. 

Expenditures for the upper apartment amounted to $1,050, with 
$600 spent on new carpet and flooring. 

The building inspection showed us to be in need of new 
eavestroughing and a better drainage system around the outside 
of the building.
