Re: [AFMUG] Anyone have a few epmp 2.4 GPS APs they could ship me overnight?

Just wanted to follow up and say that this list is a great resource for knowledge but also for the people. We were able to get the APs from a member and they will be on the tower tomorrow weather depending. Thanks From: Af [mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com] On Behalf Of Brandon Yuchasz Sent:

Even for WISPs who are very far from the affected areas, such events are humbling. Customers say "your company can deliver [good, non-satellite] internet where no one else can", but all of us rely fully on the backbone internet connection, usually on a functioning power grid, and need gasoline to

I was thinking about that... if it really is going to be 6 months before they can get power back online, I wonder if it wouldn't be a good opportunity to start putting a lot of solar panels up down there. On Sun, Sep 24, 2017 at 11:37 AM, Erich Kaiser wrote: > I

Power lines and underground construction are not a good match. Not only are you limited on the voltage due to the dielectric strength of the cable insulation but you also have a capacitance introduced that will cause phase shifts/power factor issues. From: Rory Conaway Sent: Sunday,

Re: [AFMUG] Gino

I would think it would be somewhat sunny at some of the times after a storm like this. One solar panel could run a nice transceiver during sunlight and if you were not doing tons of transmitting it could charge a batt. If you are going to invest in a rig and antenna, why not a solar panel?

Re: [AFMUG] Gino

From what I'm hearing, the major issue is power, or the lack thereof. Existing supplies of fuel for generators, etc. are in extremely short supply. I've been hearing estimates of 6+ months to restore power, and that may be optimistic. bp On 9/24/2017 9:07 AM,

I know we are all anxious hoping to hear from Gino. I wish I still had an HF rig and a decent antenna. I am wondering of anyone on here works 20 meters and has heard from folks in PR? Keep hearing of the lack of communication capability there, but 2 meter and HF is pretty much going to work
