Anyone know if Rooster Cam is going to be back in time for the fall East wind season?

I tried contacting bob last spring when the cam first went offline. he told me he was out of town and could not fix it until he was back. he seemed to think the camera unit was defective and needed to be sent back to the manufacturer to be repaired. I tried a couple more attempts at reaching out to bob, but no responses. not sure how else to get hold of him. his nwkite user name is bobgatpdx
happy to help get it back online whether its a donation or even going out to help take it down and repair it. just need to hear back from bob to see how we can get r done

hey kiters!
I just got word from Bob who runs the roosterCam....
Turns out the current setup will need to be replaced. The problem is the new camera will cost over $300.00 to acquire. Bob has been a great contributor to NW kiteboarding community by having this camera up for so long, it's time to help him out by throwing some coin towards the new equipment.
I'll contribute $20, but that's only a small step towards the complete cost.
there's a link on the roosterCam website that links to PayPal.
http://www.pdxgreen.com/RoosterCam.aspx
I know alot of you use this camera to give a confirmation on whether to head out.
Please I encourage any of you rooster rock kiteboarders to help with the costs of the equipment to help ensure we will have a online cam that will continue to be free without a subscription.
time to step up!

Nice to meet you Stringy at Rooster this weekend.
Al and I took down the RoosterCam (after getting rid of the wasps that were living in its enclosure). Was hoping it was fixable, but looks like our NetCam has finally died after 5 years of rough duty. A new cam has been ordered for $335. Could really use your help to pay for this and with a little luck we'll be back up and running before the end of Sept.

Thanks so much for the early donations - $100 received already!
