I still have my old DEC PDP-11 (actually, a PDT-11/150, with an
LSI-11 CPU, 60kB, and two 8-inch floppies). I haven't fired it up in
years, but I recently pulled out the 8" floppy case to show some
young people. of the iPod generation, what they looked like.
It ran (runs?) RT-11. CP/M was based on RT-11 (in the "bad
imitation" sense). MS-DOS was likewise based on CP/M.
I stopped using it regularly when I got an Atari ST
("Jackintosh"). That could run a version of Phil Karn's NET and TOS,
so I was able to use it for TCP/IP over packet radio in 1987. 1200
bps semi-Aloha. Its protocol analyzer mode showed every packet going
by, and it was slow enough to really study the operation in real time.

LOL! Here we go again with the "dating game" :)
My first "laptop" was this:

It was really cool but weighed as much as sewing machine which was
the term we gave it.

I'd pay a little more when they come out with the auto-install feature...
Maybe one day - Auto-Everything. Just take it out of the box and
plug it in. It figures out what to do where...
They can call it AIRverywhere

Subject: [WISPA] UBNT AUTO Channel
FYI
I'm hesitant to jump into UBNT Beta firmware for large scale
deployment, lesson learned the hard way
But the latest includes
channel hopping and Auto channel. I've had ongoing issues with
random interference and every couple of weeks or so have had to
change my frequencies on pretty much all my UBNT radios. But I took
the plunge with this new beta and it's been SOLID for me for a week
now. I tried the channel hopping but it was too busy for me. My
noise floor was all over the place. SUCKED and way too random for
me BUT just doing a simple AUTO channel
. Smooth as silk! My
interference is now GONE. My throughput has increased and my noise
floor went from an average -85 to a -95 to -100 average. Running
5GHz on all links
.. I call this one a WIN!
As I said, FYI. Nothing but good on this UBNT Beta. It's about time! J
