Equipment Some node equip. details (/maps/view?id=FHC here) . {http://members.optushome.com.au/dagdamor/FHC/Omni2.JPG Antenna} {http://members.optushome.com.au/dagdamor/FHC/Senaoand%20Server.JPG SenaoinServer} (http://members.optushome.com.au/dagdamor/FHC/Rooftop.jpg Panoramic) shot from rooftop. !! Services ATM there is a FTPd operational. Lots of fun stuff (no pr0n sorry!). Leech to your hearts content. !! Plans Get a 6 metre mast an get up above most of the trees. Working on setting up a PoE powered minipc in a weatherbox (Thanks Dave!). The pc has a dual pcmcia card in it (PC104) so would make a good routing node... Possible future expansion could be a big mast on the garage roof with the minipc etc. !! Problems I don't have any cash <- Well that will be solved soon. I am surrounded by trees <-- who isn't {/regexpicons/emoticons/emoticon-face1.png :)} More seriously the mast is only 1.5 metres or so above the top of the chimney. I still have a good 3 metres or so of Heliax in a loop on the run from inside the house, so I am hunting for a cheap 5-6 metre mast which should get me above most of the trees.
