Just FYI since I started this aspect of the thread :-) - the trailer will be equipped with both local area Omni antennas on one router, and a point to point on a separate router.. however, the point to point is only active on an as needed basis for HSMM activities.. and while the control system will work through it, the local area WiFi with Omni antennas is the primary control path for 2.4ghz control. the 2m packet inputs are last ditch backups in case I cannot reach the 2.4 access point or the repeater input. To make it more clear.. it is actually the onboard computer that has true control. and I have multiple means to issue commands to that computer.
Note that this is not a control link in the conventional sense. I'm not running 1200 baud packet on a 2.4g frequency.. I'm running full a full WiFi access point, and anyone that can connect and has the passwords and the custom remote control software can gain full access to the trailer control system. _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ron Wright Sent: Friday, November 09, 2007 9:02 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Part 97 question reference to Repeater control Laryn, My only reason for thinking 2.4 G would not be legal for control it did not fall within the Auxiliary frequencies allowed for control or Telecommand. However, there is the issue of 97.213(a) "fiber optic cable OR other telecommunications service is considered wire-line". So if 2.4 G is considered wire-line, and most use this service for such, it might be legal. However, if one is putting up ones on point-to-point 2.4 G rx/tx for control might be questionable. 73, ron, n9ee/r >From: Laryn Lohman <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:larynl%40hotmail.com> com> >Date: 2007/11/08 Thu PM 10:25:46 CST >To: Repeater-Builder@ <mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com> yahoogroups.com >Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Part 97 question reference to Repeater control > >Ron, please clarify why you think that Part 97 would not allow using >2.4 gc.
