I do worry about the placement of your D-Link, though. It's awfully close to that last shooter motor, and potential interference is an issue.
Floor loading wasn't in the cards. If we added that system, we'd likely be wiring and programming in Week 7.

As for the radio, we can move it to the other side if it becomes a problem. You didn't see electrical's previous proposals which included buried in the nest of the main electrical board and just above the three Jags for the shooter.
