One of the best things I got from my primary instructor was "When you 
don't like it where you is, go where you ain't."


That advice has saved my bacon more than once.

The other thing I try to get across to pilots is 'don't be afraid to 
declare an emergency because you are worried about the paperwork'.   
The FAA does not consider a successfully handled emergency anything 
more than the system working properly.I have declared several 
emergencies over the last 25 years (2 vacuum pump failures in IMC, 
one bad mag / rough engine, icing, and a VFR into IMC incident). The 
amount of paperwork involved has been zero.


I have asked the question to the FAA - what happens when a pilot 
declares an emergency.  The answer:  If the emergency is successfully 
handled and the flight terminates normally the only paperwork the 
controller does is filing a 'flight assistance report' to the FSDO 
(flight standards district office).  The reports are reviewed to look 
for trends and ongoing safety concerns, but rarely result in any 
further action.   The purpose of the system is to improve safety, and 
it doesn't work if pilots are afraid to use it.

I kind of like the idea of a rented supported system.

 

But I don’t like the idea of people calling in every time their wireless 
doesn’t reach their attic, or to open up ports to their gaming thingy.

 

So my real question is this, at $7 a month, does it make enough money to hire 
someone full time to answer the phones on these and be the go-to guy for every 
single problem on their internal network?

 

If not, then I’m fine staying completely away from this (and hiring people to

20 years and a CFII ticket later I tell my student pilots the same thing -

The other thing I try to get across to pilots is 'don't be afraid to declare an

consider a successfully handled emergency anything more than the system working 
properly.I have declared several emergencies over the last 25 years (2 
vacuum pump failures in IMC, one bad mag / rough engine, icing, and a VFR into 
IMC incident). The amount of paperwork involved has been zero.  

I have asked the question to the FAA - what happens when a pilot declares an 
emergency.  The answer:  If the emergency is successfully handled and the 
flight terminates normally the only paperwork the controller does is filing a 
'flight assistance report' to the FSDO (flight standards district office).  The

The other thing I try to get across to pilots is 'don't be afraid to 
declare an emergency because you are worried about the paperwork'.   
The FAA does not consider a successfully handled emergency anything 
more than the system working properly.I have declared several 
emergencies over the last 25 years (2 vacuum pump failures in IMC, 
one bad mag / rough engine, icing, and a VFR into IMC incident). The 
amount of paperwork involved has been zero.


I have asked the question to the FAA - what happens when a pilot 
declares an emergency.  The answer:  If the emergency is successfully 
handled and the flight terminates normally the only paperwork the 
controller does is filing a 'flight assistance report' to the FSDO 
(flight standards district office).  The reports are reviewed to look 
for trends and ongoing safety concerns, but rarely result in any 
further action.   The purpose of the system is to improve safety, and 
it doesn't work if pilots are afraid to use it.

A hearty well done, and that sort of exchange makes me want to ask for 
the controller's phone number.   Who says the conversation cannot go the 
other way?  Specially with someone senior from the FAA in attendance. 
Ice and flying, a NO FUCK AROUND situation..   I don't care what kind of

Incidentally the Mimosa B11 backhauls will accept the BiDi SFP transceivers

So we use the switch to power the B11s and then it’s fiber goes directly into

They only do timing, not ethernet.  You run dedicated timing cables from the AP

Oh, yeah, that was you!  That makes sense.  We are looking at using SyncBox 
12's at the top just for timing FSK (and 450 too I guess).  This allows us to

timing port sync from the SyncBox and 24V power from the WS-12-250-DC.  No need

I'm the guy who just smoked a ring of FSK APs by running 48v to them! :)  I 
wanted to use 48v for the reasons you just stated but because much of the 
Cambium equipment is only 24v this meant having a DC DC converter in the 
enclosure which is another point of failure, expensive, and impractical to step 
down large wattages.  I understand the same point of failure is in the WS but 
it's integrated and hidden so I pretend it's not there. :)

With the 12awg SOOW we use even on a 600' run there is less than 3% voltage 
drop. The WS can take as little as 9VDC. The rectifier can easily be tuned up 
to 27v to offset any drop. Also we gut the AC DC supplies in the 1016 Mikrotik 
and run it direct DC since it takes 24vdc.  Everything is fully DC, finally!

I'll reply with ICT price when I'm back in the office.

Put a neoprene washer under the bolt, and a bead of silicone behind the

Thanks Jamie, we didn’t fuse/breaker the inside of the box because we have that

Re: [AFMUG] Durable ice repellents

2016-04-28 Thread Chuck McCown
I made myself a personal minimums checklist after that.  Some of the items I 
remember are:

Turn on full defrost prior to entering anything but blue sky.
Turn off moving map, look at the HSI only for nav.
Carry more speed than what you trained for.  
Get the F&*#$%G WINDS before you pick the runway!!!

That was a bad day indeed.  Bad day...

Re: [AFMUG] PacketFlux Site Monitor Switch

2016-04-28 Thread Forrest Christian (List Account)
Most of the inputs to the site monitor are ground referenced.  In fact one
of the connections labeled switch input is actually tied to ground.

If you have any sort of reference to ground tied in to the circuit hooked
to the switch input things will likely act oddly.

 goes directly into the fiber patch panel (fiber run in liquidtight from

They only do timing, not ethernet.  You run dedicated timing cables from
the AP to the SyncBox, and then Cat5 from the AP to the Netonix switch for
power+data.

Put a neoprene washer under the bolt, and a bead of silicone behind the 
strut.  Even if it someday down the road it started weeping during the 
rain it would just fall out through your condensate drain.


.I didn't read your parts list though.  If you /don't/ have a 
condensate drain you should think about that.

Just an opinion, but I would put a few more bolts into that mounting strut.  
I'm guessing you've got one in each corner.  Even low grade steel bolts are

one bolt.

With the 12awg SOOW we use even on a 600' run there is less than 3% voltage 
drop. The WS can take as little as 9VDC. The rectifier can easily be tuned up 
to 27v to offset any drop. Also we gut the AC DC supplies in the 1016 Mikrotik

12v 45ah TR45-12 Tempest AGM Batteries (4x in parallel and series to make 24v)

MikroTik CCR1016-12S-1S+ http://goo.gl/h5N4RQ
6 Port Rack Mount Fiber Enclosure Pre-Loaded with SC SM Connectors 
http://goo.gl/8x5fcg

The 4x batteries fit on the 3U tray and take up just under 4U of total height.  
There is enough room in the 12U rack for up to 2 of these 4U battery trays.  
The MikroTik is all SFP ports because we run fiber to everything, with the 
exception of one copper eth cable to the rectifier for battery management and 
monitoring.

Incidentally the Mimosa B11 backhauls will accept the BiDi SFP transceivers 
linked on the SMM Details.PDF parts list, provided they are HP compatibility.  
So we use the switch to power the B11s and then it’s fiber goes directly into 
the fiber patch panel (fiber run in liquidtight from enclosure).  The CCR1016 
then has all the backhauls directly connected via fiber, and the APs are 
grouped 8 APs per switch (per fiber) so for every 8 APs there’s a full gig to 
the router.  (You could have 12 APs per switch if you added 6 SyncInjectors 
total).  The enclosures are standardized so we are building to have hot spares 
on standby ready to go in the event of a catastrophic failure.

Very nice.

Just an opinion, but I would put a few more bolts into that mounting 
strut.  I'm guessing you've got one in each corner.  Even low grade 
steel bolts are staggeringly strong, but if you had a bad one then

Re: [AFMUG] CMM for 2016 What's in the box?

2016-04-28 Thread Josh Baird
Interesting that you are using 24V and not 48V especially since you are
running DC up the tower where voltage drop may be a concern.  I realize the
WS-12-250-DC's will automatically up-convert to whatever, but they are more
efficient if you feed them a higher voltage (~48V).  If you already have 4
batteries at the base, what is keeping you from using a 48VDC rectifier?

Would you mind sharing the approximate cost of that ICT?  Off-list is fine
if you would like.

Thanks,

Josh

Thanks!  The base of the tower is quite simple:

Kendall Howard 12U 19" Wall Mount Rack http://goo.gl/pbpnbk
ICT1200-24SBC 24v rectifier (also a 600W version available) http://goo.gl/GkOBBW
12v 45ah TR45-12 Tempest AGM Batteries (4x in parallel and series to make 24v)

MikroTik CCR1016-12S-1S+ http://goo.gl/h5N4RQ
6 Port Rack Mount Fiber Enclosure Pre-Loaded with SC SM Connectors 
http://goo.gl/8x5fcg

The 4x batteries fit on the 3U tray and take up just under 4U of total height.  
There is enough room in the 12U rack for up to 2 of these 4U battery trays.  
The MikroTik is all SFP ports because we run fiber to everything, with the 
exception of one copper eth cable to the rectifier for battery management and 
monitoring.

Incidentally the Mimosa B11 backhauls will accept the BiDi SFP transceivers 
linked on the SMM Details.PDF parts list, provided they are HP compatibility.  
So we use the switch to power the B11s and then it’s fiber goes directly into 
the fiber patch panel (fiber run in liquidtight from enclosure).  The CCR1016 
then has all the backhauls directly connected via fiber, and the APs are 
grouped 8 APs per switch (per fiber) so for every 8 APs there’s a full gig to 
the router.  (You could have 12 APs per switch if you added 6 SyncInjectors 
total).  The enclosures are standardized so we are building to have hot spares 
on standby ready to go in the event of a catastrophic failure.

I was asked offline about what DC/fiber we’re using:
1000’ 12/4 SOOW SO 600V Power Cord http://goo.gl/mKVXG1

If you use consumer connect the are even cheaper.  Best routers i have ever 
sold.  We are starting to use their gigapoints with a 844E and sell a $7 
managed service.  We have about a 90% take rate.  I also get them with 5 year 
warrantys so i know i will never loose money on them. They also have an app for 
the home owner that we are starting to use.

Nice thing is we can totally get in and troubleshoot anything.
And the parents can control which devices and which services they allow their 
kids to use.

Best router ever!  Highly recommend them.

We sell it as a managed wifi service instead of selling just the router.  
Customer pays $99 "setup fee" and $12/mo.  Clients love them and so do our 
support staff.
