A few people work/live up on the mountain anywhere from 2 to 4 days per week, 24 hours at a time. They're all Hams. After talking to them on the radio I found out that they were using very unreliable dial up access. I offered free broadband in exchange for space and of course they were very happy with that arrangement.
The equipment has been there over a year now and has been very reliable. Most of the use of the AP on the mountain has been for my own purposes of antenna testing. The furthest I've tested is 15 miles away with a 19dbi panel antenna. I'm sure it would work even further, but I've not yet tried it.

Just how do you go about procuring a space for an access point up there? I mean, is it installed in an existing facility, or lashed to a pine tree or what? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SOCALWUG" group.
