<div bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm pleased to announce we have installed a
working link to East Tiger Mountain @ 3000ft ASL
(47.488198°, -121.946706°).<br>
<br>
The uplink is coming from the Tukwila datacenter
and is just using single-polarization hardware
right now because it was on hand. We should
upgrade this link hardware to dual polarity, but
I'd like to wait until the Ubiquity IsoBeam
product hits the market before we do that. The
present performance is acceptable at about
50Mbit average. So this link upgrade is being
skipped in the phase 1 spend here.<br>
<br>
We have also recently replaced the Westin router
with a virtualized router that offers far
greater performance, so I was able to re-use the
RB2011 hardware from the Westin to run ETiger.
This spend doesn't need to happen at this site.
Yay re-use!<br>
<br>
I would like to try linking ETiger with the
Snohomish DEM ("Paine") site. Since the
viability of this link is unknown, I think we
should do a test using hardware on-hand. If the
test shows the signals are good, I'll roll the
proper hardware request into a phase 2 spend.<br>
<br>
We do need to get Sector 3 installed up there
though. It would be immediately useful, and
would replace our Mirrormont site, which is only
1500ft ASL, and has much slower connectivity.
Here are all the parts to make Sector 3 happen:<br>

I'm including 2 antenna mounts in the mounting
hardware category. One for the sector, and one
for the test link to SnoDEM.<br>
<br>
We'll also need to find a special short-depth
server to use @ ETiger. I've been doing some
research on this but haven't found anything
appropriate yet. Let me know if you have
something or know of something cheap that still
provides remote KVM with virtual media support.
All the racks @ ETiger are two-post with very
little depth available, so normal servers won't
work.<br>
<br>
Our present cash balance is about $340. If you
recall the last spend request (for the 900MHz
test project), I was able to save some money by
borrowing the expensive antenna hardware instead
of buying it. We only purchased the two 900MHz
MikroTik modems, and we also have two Ubiquiti
900MHz modems on loan so we can do true A/B
testing. This testing will likely use the
Mirrormont site, although SnoDEM would be
preferred.<br>
<br>
Board, please vote on this spend request.
Mailing list members, feel free to comment
before the board votes.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
