That is probably a good point, does the comm equipment do more than just talking to Earth? I don't see communicating with Earth as a real priority. We know we have someone that shouldn't be here, and yes Earth can probably assist in that to a degree. But beyond that, what else can communicating with Earth do for us in this colony?
If the equipment is only for communicating with Earth and given the labor/time constraints we are under, I don't see this as a valuable project in the first few days.
If this equipment is also used by the colonists, then my opinion changes and this is a huge resource that we need ASAP.
