How to keep house while drowning by KC Davis: how it’s not morally wrong to have a messy living space, and how to keep it livable even when you feel like you’re overwhelmed.
I have ADHD and depression, this book was pivotal in helping me get out of the stereotypical “depression apartment” situation.
I was going to suggest The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, after all, they will already have a towel.
How are you hanging your antenna? Dipoles for 20m and lower are typically set up in an Inverted V configuration, which should work fine with the 10m mast you already have.
We met on OkCupid. We were on opposite sides of the Atlantic, but she had a friend on this side, and they were comparing the “weird” profiles they were each finding. OkCupid has a “if you liked this person, you might like these more” section, and I appeared in there. She wasn’t really looking to date anyone, but she clicked, messaged me, and we clicked. I moved to the US to be with her after a two-year long distance relationship, and we’ll be celebrating our ten year wedding anniversary next year.
United. Twice. They damaged my luggage both times.
I’ve only flown Delta and American since then.
That’s not a hitch, it’s a lashing, if I understand you correctly.
The problem you’re going to encounter is that any radio system capable of covering your entire area is going to need some sort of license, either individual or group. You probably can’t require your volunteers to pay the FCC $35 for a GMRS license, and ham radio requires an exam, so that’s probably out, too.
That pretty much only leaves business licenses. Yes, there is MURS, which is license free, and might work better than what I am assuming are Walmart FRS radios, but still runs the risk of communication failing when you need it.
If I was in charge of a convention, I’d talk to the company that supplies your AV equipment about who to rent business radios from. They probably have recommendations. If you don’t have an AV company, you can Google for “radio rentals West Virginia”, there’s a few options. They can help you with all the licensing, and will provide all the radio hardware. This is not going to be cheap, but will probably end up being less expensive than trying to set up your own repeater, and all the associated licensing headaches.

Did you know that XLR is also something of a standard for interchangeable sex machine attachments?
Excuse me, I believe you have my stapler?
