    Ideally an OSHA Authorized Climber certification (or higher), but
    we've also been successful with people that have general climbing
    experience.   In either case, you need sufficient safety equipment
    (body harness, etc), and to follow safety procedures set out on
    site.<br>

    Is this something you think you're suited for?<br>

              SnoDEM is in need of some repairs: <br>
              <br>
              1) Gold.SnoDEM modem is dead, needs to be replaced. <br>
              2) All the wiring is flailing in the wind since the zip
              ties broke (<a

                moz-do-not-send="true">https://imgur.com/a/wkghAp0</a>). 
              Cables need to be properly supported, with cable ladder
              clamping hardware.  However, this was our second site, and
              we used cable that was too thick to be compatible with
              tower cable cushions, so....all the cabling has to be
              replaced with proper diameter cable. <br>
              3) The dishes are not shielded, so they pick up way too
              many local signals, and each other.  Every dish has to be
              lowered to the ground, radome removed, and shield kit
              bolted on, then raised up again, re-attached, and
              re-aimed. <br>
              4) Optionally, the sectors may be upgraded to MIMO.  This
              is still TBD. <br>
              5) Optionally, the last dish may be installed, bearing
              north for Lookout. <br>
              <br>
              This will require at least 2 climbers on the tower, and a
              bunch of ground crew to help with cable hoisting and dish
              shield replacement.  Each shield will probably take 1 hour
              to replace, since they have so many bolts. <br>
              <br>
              I'm wondering who would be available and willing to help
              on the 12th and 13th of May.  You don't have to do both
              days, so let me know your day-by-day availability if you
              can help.  Please hit Reply and not Reply All, to minimize
              list spam. <br>
              <br>
              Thanks, <br>
