I will look at these scripts. I agree that the climber can't be looking at a screen. We can't even align an antenna on a tripod on the ground while looking at a screen.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Herb<br class=""><div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Jan 29, 2020, at 7:40 PM, Steve <<a href="mailto:sbm999@gmail.com" class="">sbm999@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class="">

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">There are various scripts you could
start with, adapt as needed, to provide lights and tones based on
signal strength. This is one tool to consider. Quite challenging
to align an antenna and look at a screen while up a tower. <br class="">

In the near future, Oregon HamWAN (<a href="http://www.oregonhamwan.org/" class="" moz-do-not-send="true">http://www.oregonhamwan.org</a>) will
be deploying three sectors and an uplink (aimed at Larch Mountain)
on the KOIN Tower in Southwest Portland.<br class="">
<br class="">
What is the best way to optimize the aiming of our uplink? I am
familiar with the use of /interface wireless scan 0, but it is
difficult to optimize the signal strength using the output of this
command.<br class="">
<br class="">
Aim Master (<a href="https://github.com/HamWAN/aim" class="" moz-do-not-send="true">https://github.com/HamWAN/aim</a>) looked
like a promising approach, but it appears as if this has not
been updated since 2016, and it appears to use SNMP MIBs that
are no longer supported by the current firmware.<br class="">
<br class="">
We need to provide instructions for a professional tower climber
that will probably have limited, if any, experience with HamWAN.<br class="">
<br class="">
Thanks for your suggestions.<br class="">
