Rather than hold it by hand and try to run the laptop at the same time, I mounted it to an existing piece of uni-strut that was supporting part of an existing HVAC assembly. It was extremely coarse aim, and not easily “tweaked” with an angled clamp on square uni-strut. The vertical was only about 4.5’ high, with the bottom 2’ obscured toward the front of the dish path by a beam assembly. The lower part of the Poynting was almost LOS obscured by a roof beam assembly about 18” in front of the dish. The upper part of the dish was literally touching the HVAC equipment. In short, the antenna was shooting out of a recess between the roof and HVAC equipment. Signals were measured between -65 and -75 on both Haystack S1 and S3. Fine tuning was a joke because of trying to rotate the clamp around the square unistrut. Still, speakeasy gave us a good 3-4mbit even under those conditions. I expect we will be significantly better on the pole with the ability to tune and more open space / less Fresnel issues around the dish. It is a 100% unencumbered shot to Haystack.

Last month after reaching out things have moved along very well and we appear to have very good support. An antenna location has been identified and they will be installing CAT5 from the roof to radio room in the next 2-3 weeks. This should give us time to have the pieces in place to connect Evergreen to SnoDEM and Providence for the upcoming Cascadia Rising drill in June.<o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">I hope to still add Everett Clinic this month as well.
