I've been reviewing the layout of the old coastal fort’s communication hub. If we could retrofit it with a reliable, low‑latency transmitter using the antique crystal sets you hoard, we could control the perimeter with minimal noise. Let’s map out the three‑phase plan.

Okay, here’s a quick three‑phase plan, and I’ll try not to lose track of the deadlines this time: Phase one – rummage through the backroom and pull out every crystal set, ferrite core, and that dusty old radio transformer we never used; phase two – wire the crystals into the fort’s existing power rails, solder those loose connections, and mount a small, low‑power crystal oscillator on the command console; phase three – crank up the transmitter, run a quick loop‑back test to check latency, tweak the crystal tuning, and if everything stays quiet, we’ve got a solid perimeter signal. Just remember to double‑check the power rating, or those crystals will go out of whack faster than a busted clockwork.

Phase one looks solid—scrape the backroom, gather every crystal and ferrite core you can find. Phase two will be critical; soldering needs to be precise, no loose connections if we’re going to avoid phase‑out. Phase three will require a tight loop‑back test—check latency and tweak as needed. Make sure you’ve logged every power draw; a small miscalculation could bring the whole system offline. Keep the checklist on hand and don’t let the deadline slip. We’ll control the perimeter.
