<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Awww, too bad about Rochester. I
should grab a tower section from you soon. This weekend maybe?<br>
<br>
Alright, so 34dBi dish is ordered ($292 shipped). Found a <a
href="http://www.titanwirelessonline.com/Poynting-5-8GHz-31dBi-Grid-p/at-30gr-58.htm">really
compelling 31dBi grid antenna</a> for $95 shipped and ordered
it. It's a lot of gain for reasonable money, and would make a
great light weight client antenna. Or a much cheaper inter-site
antenna when the extra 6dB of gain isn't needed between sites.
Found <a
href="http://www.wifi-stock.com/details/airmax_16sec.html">another
really interesting sector antenna</a>. And a <a
href="http://www.wifi-stock.com/details/pa27grid.html">really
cheap 27dBi grid antenna</a>. Tacked those onto my order of 5
5SHPN units, but it turns out wifi-stock.com is based in Europe
and they have a really weird ordering system. You don't get to
choose shipping right on their website. And they invoice you
manually. Hopefully this isn't a scam joint, and the marvels of
modern shipping make this quick. It'll be $501+shipping, and ship
out sometime next week.<br>
<br>
And that is how you blow almost $1k, kids. Stay in school! :)<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">We sure don't! :) I'd like a small
section of tower, 8 or 10ft to affix the cell site gear to.
Rohn 25 would be perfect. It'd be good if it was able to
stand on the ground somehow. I have 4 MT radios here that
can be used to compose the cell, but more are needed for
client access/sale. I'll probably order 4 more tonight. We
need some stock of this common gear stuff. I'll order one
of those (incredibly expensive) ARC 34dBi dishes and hope it
isn't shit like their sector turned out to be. If nothing
else it'll look like SRS BSNS on display.<br>
<br>
Then, after the new sectors arrive and presumably one of
them passes acceptance testing, will need to order 2 more of
that type of sector.<br>
<br>
Also, I've increased the flea market registration to 2
tables and 3 helpers. Rob, you're paid for if you show up.<br>
<br>
My wife suggested getting a banner. <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.esigns.com/table-banners/">http://www.esigns.com/table-banners/</a>
I'm colorblind with no artistic sense. If someone on list
wants to get all fancy, I won't refuse a nice HamWAN
banner. :) The tables are 8ft wide, so 28"x96" seems
appropriate. Would be cool to "fly the flag" in the
background of the cell site. :)<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hello,<br>
<br>
I just reserved a table for HamWAN @ <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.mikeandkey.org/flea.htm">the flea market</a>.
I would dearly love to have a fully working cell site
assembled and running there, and provide folks with access
equipment to link up right on the spot. We have exactly 4
weeks to make this happen.<br>
<br>
2 weeks after the flea market, HamWAN will be presenting @
the <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.microhams.com/softcontent.aspx?scId=58">MicroHAMS
Digital Conference</a>. March is shaping up to be a busy
month.<br>
<br>
Dear Board, please attend. Dear Dev Team, please attend
too. I've reserved "helper" admission for 2 people. Let me
know if you plan to be there or can't make it. Also,
thinking of increasing the reservation to 2 tables (16 ft of
space). A fully assembled cell site is gonna take up a lot
of room, and people will want space to put their laptops
down and configure stuff.<br>
