Do we have the LNA mounting plate? #45

I could just be missing it but I can't seem to find the aluminum plate for mounting the LNA onto the feed. It should be a (from the online parts list) 6061 aluminum sheet 0.09" thick, and 5.7” x 2.16”. If we don't have one, it can be custom ordered from Online Metals.

I don't think we have this yet. We should ask David Norman if we can get this at Home Depot. If not, we'll order from online.

I just looked at the Home depot website to see what they have in the bennington store, and they have aluminum sheet metal that we could cut to our dimensions but I don't think it will be thick enough to give the mount any structural stability. I found one sheet metal product on the website that may work, which has a thickness of 0.0329" and is big enough that we can cut the size we want out of it. Here's the link: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Crown-Bolt-6-in-x-18-in-21-Gauge-Aluminum-Metal-Sheet-47640/202183507
