Due to the freakish bad weather, I’m cancelling the site visit today and will reschedule, probably next Sunday at 1pm.
I’m still going to the site and if you want to join me, call me on 19/79 or 637-0985.
Sorry about the change in plans. - Rod

ATV REPEATER - SPRING CLEANING TOUR AND WORK SESSION TODAY AT 1PM
AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT - If you want to do something a little different today, consider a trip up Gibraltar Road this afternoon to check out the ATV site and help with a few construction and cleanup projects. We need your help and it might even be fun.
TRANSPORTATION - If you need a ride, call me ASAP at 637-0985. If you’re driving on your own, contact me on the 146.19/79 repeater between 12:45pm and 1:00pm to coordinate access to the site.
SHOWTIME - We’ll be hooking up a trailer at Dave K9KBX’s house at 1pm and then we’ll drive to the repeater site, arriving around 1:30pm.
OBJECTIVES – Build, learn and enjoy. Depending on the size of the crew, we’ll try to accomplish these tasks…
· Raise the 5.8 GHz receive antenna, peak it up and install the preamp
· Install a 5.x GHZ WiFi Access Point pointing downtown
· Install a 2.4 GHz WiFi Client Bridge pointing downtown
· Install a Local Area Network Switch and Wireless Router
· Get all of the computers talking to each other on the LAN/WLAN
· Install an “on-the-air” Waveform Monitor so we can all check and adjust our ATV signals
· Test and install our Tower Cameras
· Load the Outdoor Rack onto the trailer and take it to Rod WB9KMO’s house
· General Cleanup of the building and surrounding area
If you want to learn about these things or just want to pitch in and help, check in on 19/79 at 1pm. We may work until 5pm or so, but you can leave anytime you want. Even a little bit of your time will be a big help. Your participation is greatly appreciated.
