I hate when people do that. Attach line to other people's lines. When we found stuff lashed to ours while working on our lines we cut it loose and let it hang. We then would call the tower company and inform them that lines were loose. Always pissed me off since it cost me more money to work on my

I forgot, some towers are grounded at the base and you don’t need anything to isolate your jump onto the tower. There are 1/4 wave, 1/2 shunt fed (very hot at the ground) and 5/8 wave. From: Matt Hoppes Sent: Saturday, August 25, 2018 10:07 AM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group Subject:

Raspberry pi should be robust enough, the only issue would be sd card durability if you don't pick a good quality card and take care to mount the drives with sd friendly mount options. To somewhat hijack the discussion, I'm interested in what you plan to monitor on site. The reason is that I'm

OK, sounds like we need to get our hands on a PI and start messing with it. Our monitoring is mostly going to be IP based stuff. We are implementing Sonar and need it to run the Poller client. So we will be ping devices and doing SNMP pulls. We may also have it do some other scripted

That's right. We have this running in our NOC as a backup only if the local ones fail. Our DIAs are geographically dispersed so the thought is we run these in the DIA and some other key towers for their local subnets only since we don't backhaul our traffic from the different regions to the
