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>
<br>
Here is the rough budget for this spend request:<br>
