I have used the Netbotz appliances before with great success. APC bought
them a few years ago. Axis might be another option.

I am looking for recommendations of an IP based security system with
high quality video.  I believe PC based is what we're after for low cost
and upgradability.

I am not looking for a single camera, but a whole system with perhaps
dozens of cameras.  Most security systems I've seen (albeit I'm not
really exposed to this industry) you can hardly tell the difference
between a person and a dog on it's hind legs.

[WISPA] MT telnet

2008-08-04 Thread Travis Johnson
Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a way to turn off the color features on 
the newer Mikrotik ROS versions when doing a telnet? It is messing up 
our remote telnet scripts because the color codes are being sent and the 
Net::Telnet perl module does not know how to deal with them.

thanks,

Travis

The best system I've worked with is the Honeywell RapidEye. I've only
used it for cameras, but it also does relay input/output for sensors
and door locks.
Runs $3-$10K depending on the I/O options and storage capacity.

For stand alone cameras I know some people that have had success with Axis.

I don't have a mikrotik to try it on, but if you set your TERM env

Is it possible to get an injunction against a HAM if he moved to a
900MHz frequency as is causing interference that would disrupt our
ability to do business? I know he has a license and I don't however
there must be some precedent that allows for commercial venture versus
amateur radio.
 
Any ideas?

[WISPA] 900mhz - Ham

2008-08-04 Thread Lance Jahnke
It's my understanding that as long as the Ham operator is within his operating 
privileges, any interference with part 15 users or other NON-Licensed 
user/equipment, there is not much that can be done. I would however bring it to 
his attention and constructively work on a solution with him. Ham's are known 
to help as long as they are treated well. Solutions such as band pass filters, 
proper radio grounding and proper electrical grounding could alleviate some 
interference problems.

You may get an initial injunction but as a Part 15 user you don't have much in 
the line of rights as far as federal law is concerned unless you can show 
willful interference from he ham.

From a business point of view anything is possible in court

Unfortunately amateur radio becomes pretty moot on high freqs (30 Mhz and up). 
Its amazing that a business csn suffer bcause someone wants to see if they can 
talk accross the state on spectrum that is meant to talk less than 10 miles. 
Especially when they can get a Skype account or call the other ham on the 
phone. General conversation amateur radio really accomplishes nothing these days

Wow.  That last paragraph should get the list warmed up.  ;-)

OK, to warm things up, I proffer the following:

Ham radio is essential to the emergency communications network of the 
planet.  When all else fails, hams and the American Red Cross can always get 
business done.  At 5.7 GHz, the distance record is 3,982 km.  At 903 MHz the 
distance record is 4,064 km.  They bounce signals off the moon and launch 
their own satellites.

Ham emergency communications networks are tested each day.  Much of our 
progress in microwave propagation and antenna work has been done by hams.

They were here first and will be here last.  Pardon the image but we are the 
ones farting in their phone booth.

 OK, to warm things up, I proffer the following:

 Ham radio is essential to the emergency communications network of the 
 planet.  When all else fails, hams and the American Red Cross can always 
 get business done.  At 5.7 GHz, the distance record is 3,982 km.  At 903 
 MHz the distance record is 4,064 km.  They bounce signals off the moon and 
 launch their own satellites.

 Ham emergency communications networks are tested each day.  Much of our 
 progress in microwave propagation and antenna work has been done by hams.

 They were here first and will be here last.  Pardon the image but we are 
 the ones stinking up their phone booth.

Re: [WISPA] Court Injunction

2008-08-04 Thread lakeland
I personally worked in the 911 system during 9-11 and I can say that most of 
the emergency traffic was self generated and duplicate to info that was 
already exchanged by other means.

While I agree that they may have a place during emergencies I say that they 
should use 2 meters and 440 for emergency comm only and forfeit everything else 
above 50 Mhz.

There is not a lot of experimental work going on out there on amateur spectrum 
and for what there is anyone could get an experimental license in other 
spectrum like Part 90 snd do the same thing.

If there was no ARRL this conversation would be moot.

 You may get an initial injunction but as a Part 15 user you don't have 
 much in the line of rights as far as federal law is concerned unless you 
 can show willful interference from he ham.

From a business point of view anything is possible in court

 Unfortunately amateur radio becomes pretty moot on high freqs (30 Mhz and 
 up). Its amazing that a business csn suffer bcause someone wants to see if 
 they can talk accross the state on spectrum that is meant to talk less 
 than 10 miles. Especially when they can get a Skype account or call the

KD4RME if you were KA4RME you might have a different perspective.

Katrina proves the worth of ham radio.  Give me a 20 and 40 meter rig, and I 
will never ever be out of communication irrespective of where you place me 
on the planet.  NO OTHER communications medium can make that claim.

Everyone on this list wants more spectrum.  Broadcasters and Hams, move out 
of the way because we are more important, right?  To heck with the fact they 
were there first and are actually licensed.  Who cares that all of the 
original research in RF was done by hams.

Wonder how many WISP operators can pass an extra class (or 1st phone) FCC

Chuck - why would that make a bit of difference?  KD versus KA?

I never said ham radio is useless, I just said its dying.  The homebrew
activity is just a shadow of what it used to be.  Most of the traffic on
any of the bands will put you to sleep.

And I would take issue with your claim that no other communications
medium can make that claim.  I reach down below my desk and pull
out my Micom, and I have voice, data, fax capabilities WITH ALE
capability.   On HF.  With the tuner I can load up a wet string.  Oh,
did I mention, it is not a HAM radio, although capable.  We use it on
commercial and federal frequencies.

And I seem to remember that during Katrina wireless internet lived
in various configurations, and provided invaluable service.

Marlon, thanks for that, very helpful.
I notice you don't mention half and quarter size channels as another  
solution. Is that something you've thought about?

I just started with 2.4 gear last year (StarOS), so I've generally  
been using cloaking from the beginning. I think it has helped me  
get by, even with all my newbie mistakes.

 Everyone on this list wants more spectrum.  Broadcasters and Hams, move out

 Wonder how many WISP operators can pass an extra class (or 1st phone) FCC

I think it works the other way around; experience gained by FCC 
licensees made the WISP business possible. FCC license experience led to 
much of the technical innovation which today ENABLES successful WISP 
operation. I've had my Amateur Extra license for 48 years and my 1st 
Class Radiotelephone (now called General Radiotelephone) License for 
30 years. WITHOUT the learning and the experiences that having these 
licenses allowed me to obtain, no way would I have been able to now be

time to learn at least a little ham radio and commercial radio history 
has NO IDEA of the roots or the heritage of their business. It's kind of 
like a new-car salesman who has no idea about how an internal combustion

 If the WISPs of the nation conducted themselves in a manner similar to the

 Ham radio is essential to the emergency communications network of the

 You may get an initial injunction but as a Part 15 user you don't have
 much in the line of rights as far as federal law is concerned unless you
 can show willful interference from he ham.

 From a business point of view anything is possible in court

 Unfortunately amateur radio becomes pretty moot on high freqs (30 Mhz 
 and
 up). Its amazing that a business csn suffer bcause someone wants to see
 if
 they can talk accross the state on spectrum that is meant to talk less
 than 10 miles. Especially when they can get a Skype account or call the

You make some good points, Chuck, but you are wrong about one thing:  The
amateur ranks have been growing like mad since the archaic CW (Morse Code)
requirement was eliminated.  Also, hams are still experimenting and
innovating like never before as is demonstrated by the tremendous growth of
SDR (Software Defined Radio) amongst the ham ranks.  The Big 3 of ham radio
manufacturers (Icom, Yaesu and Kenwood) are fast losing ground to the more
innovative ham-owned and operated companies of TenTec, Elecraft and
Flex-Radio.  These same ham-owned companies are selling a lot of gear to the
military, so they must be on to something.

Hams are pushing the envelope in satellite and microwave comms as well as
digital communications methods which allow communications to occur at levels
30dB below the noise floor.

Anyone who thinks we're a dying breed and parasites with frequency
allocations that should be reassigned to folks who can make better use of

today.  Of course, people talking strongly about things they don't
understand is very common, particularly in election years.

But when 802.11 became easy it invited all the people to use it who 
thought that 10 watt amps were a good idea too.  Doesn't the more amateur 
HAM users invite those who are less experienced to just crank up the power 
rather than look at the engineering of their systems?  Isn't removing a 
barrier to broadcasting as a HAM (the CW requirement) simply inviting less 
experienced, less responsible users into the band?

Like look at the CB world, how many times have you seen someone with a 
massive RF amp out there broadcasting over everyone else?

Ditto.  My first transmitter (home built, toilet paper tube for coil form) 
was a hartley VCO connected to an antenna.  Was so unstable that it sounded 
like wandering fsk.

 Well spoken Jack. If I had not earned my ham ticket almost 40 years ago, 
 and
 used it as a platform for endless home-brewing, I'd never have started 
 this
 company.

 Katrina proves the worth of ham radio.  Give me a 20 and 40 meter rig,
 and I
 will never ever be out of communication irrespective of where you place
 me
 on the planet.  NO OTHER communications medium can make that claim.

 Everyone on this list wants more spectrum.  Broadcasters and Hams, move
 out
 of the way because we are more important, right?  To heck with the fact
 they
 were there first and are actually licensed.  Who cares that all of the
 original research in RF was done by hams.

 Wonder how many WISP operators can pass an extra class (or 1st phone) 
 FCC
 exam?

 I think it works the other way around; experience gained by FCC
 licensees made the WISP business possible. FCC license experience led to
 much of the technical innovation which today ENABLES successful WISP
 operation. I've had my Amateur Extra license for 48 years and my 1st
 Class Radiotelephone (now called General Radiotelephone) License for
 30 years. WITHOUT the learning and the experiences that having these
 licenses allowed me to obtain, no way would I have been able to now be
 in my 16th year in the WISP industry. Any WISP who does not take the
 time to learn at least a little ham radio and commercial radio history
 has NO IDEA of the roots or the heritage of their business. It's kind of
 like a new-car salesman who has no idea about how an internal combustion
 engine works.
 If the WISPs of the nation conducted themselves in a manner similar to
 the
 ethos of most hams we wouldn't have these problems.


 Agreed.

 And the ARC?  Spew

 And amateur radio is dying.  Its a fact.  The last one
 left needs to shut off the lights.

 Just look at the hamfests.  (I call them the land of the
 great unwashed)  Numbers are diminishing all the time.

 Springfield MO just announced they are canceling theirs
 this year.

 And yes, I can say it.  KD4RME

 OK, to warm things up, I proffer the following:

 Ham radio is essential to the emergency communications network of the
 planet.  When all else fails, hams and the American Red Cross can
 always
 get
 business done.  At 5.7 GHz, the distance record is 3,982 km.  At 903
 MHz
 the
 distance record is 4,064 km.  They bounce signals off the moon and
 launch
 their own satellites.

 Ham emergency communications networks are tested each day.  Much of 
 our
 progress in microwave propagation and antenna work has been done by
 hams.

 They were here first and will be here last.  Pardon the image but we
 are
 the
 ones farting in their phone booth.

 Jerry

 You may get an initial injunction but as a Part 15 user you don't 
 have
 much in the line of rights as far as federal law is concerned unless
 you
 can show willful interference from he ham.

 From a business point of view anything is possible in court

 Unfortunately amateur radio becomes pretty moot on high freqs (30 Mhz
 and
 up). Its amazing that a business csn suffer bcause someone wants to
 see
 if
 they can talk accross the state on spectrum that is meant to talk 
 less
 than 10 miles. Especially when they can get a Skype account or call
 the
 other ham on the phone. General conversation amateur radio really
 accomplishes nothing these days

 Wow.  That last paragraph should get the list warmed up.  ;-)

[WISPA] Was Direct Hit!! .....thanks for all the help!

2008-08-04 Thread John McDowell
As of about 10:30pm tonight, we have both towers up and running.
Thanks to Dave Rumore, Mike and Bob from Defacto, CTI, Dave East, and
Alliance.

We were able to pick up two Redline links from Alliance in Atlanta through
DeFacto Wireless and replace them with the bad ones this evening. Everything
is back up and running.

Thanks for all the help.

I'm tired, G'nite.
