Security System:

The old signalling and keypad unit faied and were replaced with a DSC 
Power 932 at a cost of $450 .  The new system uses an existing 
telephone line to report to the Trent Security System's monitoring 
station, rather than a leased ($250/yr) signal line, giving a 
two year payback.  The new system also provides more flexibility.

  NOTES
  Building: Some tree pruning & branch litter removal remains.

  Upr Apt: One last new storm is to be ordered and install this fall

  Tech:
  There was a problem with the CD players which was rectified promptly by 
  the Dan at Video Doctor.  The main logger VCR does need further repairs 
  ($275) with the other VCR still being diagnosed. 

  The Mackie 1604 mixer is showing wear.

Personnel:  Subsequent to an aggressive cleaning incident which took 
us off the air, Paul Cleveland has agreed to stand as Trent Radio's 
official Scapegoat.
