<div dir="auto">I like this idea. It looks like the wiztronics site would be the one you'd like to put the link to rattlesnake on. Since we don't currently occupy their main tower structure, we can check with them to see if a dish could be covered under our
current lease at no additional cost if you'd like.</div>

<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
</div>
<div>Hello,<br>
<br>
We have 4 clients connected to Baldi-S1 (a SISO sector) that are kind of silly:<br>
<br>
<tt> # INTERFACE RADIO-NAME MAC-ADDRESS AP SIGNAL... TX-RATE UPTIME</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> 0 wlan1 AF7PR-Baldi E4:8D:8C:C6:F5:45 no -60dBm 32.5... 2d8h51m46s</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> 1 wlan1 KD7TQN-Baldi D4:CA:6D:C2:ED:93 no -65dBm 32.5... 2d8h51m32s</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> 2 wlan1 N7OEP/Baldi-B... D4:CA:6D:0D:53:F9 no -60dBm 32.5... 2d8h51m27s</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> 3 wlan1 Rattlesnake-B... 64:D1:54:AF:3F:CD no -79dBm 19.5... 1d9h35m21s</tt><tt><br>
</tt><br>
They're silly because the first 3 are at the same mountain top, just a couple hundred feet away in adjacent shacks. This is a waste of prime long-range spectrum, being used to do local-links. I'd like to get all the shacks @ Baldi tied together via gigabit
Ethernet, and install access switches at the 2 other shacks so people there can plug into the LAN directly. This high speed LAN between all shacks can then be used to allow us to address the 4th silly client, which is Rattlesnake Mountain. I'd like to install
a dedicated dish on the northernmost tower (fed by the new high speed LAN) to act as a dedicated high speed link between Baldi and Rattlesnake. The dish on the Rattlesnake side will also need a modem upgrade to run at full speed, and I'm including that in
this proposal.<br>
