Beautiful pass of the ISS here.  Share the experience with a kid if 
you can.  Follow the link below.

I have been enjoying showing people around here the ISS.  Since
they have added so much hardware to the Space Station, it has
become one of the spectacles of the night sky.  If you are in the
right position for a pass, the ISS is the third brightest object
in the night sky after the sun and moon.  Yes, it's way brighter
than Venus.  Follow the link above to calculate when and where you
should look.  At 8:15 tonight we have a pass going over 70 degrees
which will put it almost straight overhead.

I would not want the ability to change the voltage remotely.

Switch to voltage too low and lose connectivity. Switch to a
voltage too high and you might let the smoke out.

Mike,

Since the scripting is so versatile, scripts can vary quite a bit even to
perform the same actions. If you give me an idea of what you are looking
for, we can come up with an example for you. The wiki is open, and users are
free to add their scripts, although I don't think anyone has yet.

Regards,

Cameron

[WISPA] TDWR database doing some good already!

2010-08-29 Thread Ralph Fowler 
I appreciate Jack Unger's sending out the TDWR announcement on the
announcement list, a portion of which I have copied below.

We run a Muni mesh for a city that actually includes part of Atlanta airport
property. It has a TDWR.

As part of their network, the City installed some  5.4 links. We don't
maintain or own those links, instead they are operated by their Cisco VAR.

 

I sent the VAR the "What You Can Do" section below and they are changing
frequency on one of the links as a result.   I'm not sure where they
actually sit- frequency wise but they are changing.

I expect that they will also register the stations.  They are also checking
all their other 5.4 links in other areas.

Additionally, our backhaul partner has also registered the link that brings
us part of our bandwidth.

 

Although Atlanta was not one of the problem areas, I'm sure any interference
would have been very severe.

 

I hope everyone else also gets proactive on this.  It might even become the
thing that spurs on a volunteer coordination effort on a larger scale.

What You Can Do

If you have base stations operating near a major metropolitan area and
especially if you are located in one of the problem areas, it is important
that you go to the WISPA/Spectrum Bridge database lookup page
http://spectrumbridge.com/udia/search.aspx, type in the location of your
base station(s) and determine if you are within 35 km (or line-of-sight
distance) of a TDWR site. If so, please make a note of the TDWR frequency
and exclude that frequency from use by your base stations. Further, consider
registering your base stations in the TDWR database. Registration benefits
you because when FCC enforcement teams visit your area to track down
interference sources, they will see that you are operating lawfully, clear
of the TDWR frequency. They will have no need to pay you a visit.

[WISPA] WISPMon

2010-08-29 Thread Mike Hammett 
  I'm looking at WISPMon.  It seems as though to do almost anything with 
it, it requires a script to do it.  Does anyone out there have scripts 
that they have done?  Maybe Cameron needs to put a user-contributed 
section up on the wiki for people to submit what they have done.  
Mikrotik has done a really good job of that on their site.
