Looks like we have $1786 liquid, with $4k of credit available.  Since this is a standing spend approval, our finances will vary throughout the years as we try to maintain stock.  Here's the site work review for summer 2018:

1) The Larch Mtn deploy is paid for and mostly completed.
2) The Haystack Mtn deploy is paid for, and will be completed July 7th.
3) The SnoDEM repair + upgrade work was paid by SnoDEM, and we have another day left in executing that.
4) The Lookout Mtn deploy will hopefully happen end of next week, and that should run about $3k.
5) We have potential deploy costs with Buck Mtn, which I'd estimate at $2k.  Kenny's covering part of that out of pocket.  Thanks Kenny!
6) We have potential deploy costs with Blyn Mtn, which I'd estimate at $3k, sight unseen.
7) We have repair work @ Gold Mtn (S3 dead) which I'd estimate at $100.  The DC power system and rack upgrade there is already paid for, but not installed yet.

If we're really lucky, we'll get to execute all these goals this summer.  Having a site of inventory will help us schedule all that work too.

Subject: [HamWAN PSDR] VOTE: Standing purchase order to keep whole cell site in stock at all times

Hello,

This is a vote for a standing purchase approval to keep a whole cell 
site in stock at all times for low-latency HamWAN deployment + repair 
work.  We have quite often been affected by supply chain availability 
problems, and they cause difficulty with scheduling and deployment 
success.  We've also had to pay premium prices for orders from less 
preferred vendors, or to cover rapid shipping, using our legacy 
just-in-time ordering approach.  Keeping a whole site in stock at all 
times as a standing policy ought to eliminate these problems and allow 
us to respond rapidly to opportunities and emergencies.

A full site should cost about $3500, and the exact BoM will evolve with 
our standards over time.
