Ah  – THAT clicked it in.  I had not heard of the NW Mesh “movement” and 
had  done a search and turned up the Seattle Mesh. 
Thanks, 
Rob

Seattle MeshNet is  not an amateur radio project and is strictly part15.  
That network would  not be a likely peer for HamWAN. 
 

 
You may be  confusing that with NW-MESH which is a recently popular 
ham-based project in  the Seattle area.  NW-MESH would be a perfect candidate for 
peering with  HamWAN.

Ok….. time for more questions, now that the marathon meeting  is over <g>. 
A number of times I’ve heard potential uses that seem to blur  the line 
between amateur and commercial, so my question is – how do we draw  the line? 
As an example – connecting to the Seattle MeshNet.  As I  read it, the 
MeshNet is non-amateur.  Are we looking to be a generic  carrier grade ISP?  If 
so, then this will work, but we won’t be able to  use amateur frequencies to 
do it.  Similar question for connecting  firehalls down south – if we are 
sticking to strictly amateur uses, then the  usage by laptops and other 
devices at a firehall would be limited to amateur  related uses – i.e. – no 
non-hams using it. 
It may be that I’m just missing a big concept here, but I see  a lot of 
blurring of the lines in conversation, and I think it needs to be  better 
spelled out before we get in front of too many folks. 
I’ll stop with this one for now, rather than continue to show  my ignorance 
and unfamiliarity <g>. 
Rob
