+The Onmi is only a 4db antenna so not that great. After going to the last meeting and having a chat, my thoughts have changed. Picked up a 3 slot wave guide antenna. I will now connect the Bullet 2 to the wave guide and point that East towards Officer and Pakenham both of which I can see from my roof. Picked up a Synology Disk Station to connect when I have time.

Since last year mast and node were installed and operational - until a storm came directly over the top of the house and took out the mast.

Found a great source of Al masts. Have drilled holes and am just about ready to put it up. Will post some images when I have time.

-Peter came up on the weekend and we hooked up netstumbler on the laptop to the 24db parabolic reflector grid antenna. Lots of WiFi stuff around plus a few open APs. Nothing suitable for Melbourne Wireless yet. :-( Peter has been doing some link simulations so we shall see what comes out of that. I have figured out the best way to mount the antennas....maybe on the weekend.

Well at a recent Melb. Wire. meeting I picked up a 24db parabolic reflector antenna and a 14db vertical patch antenna. I also found on Ebay a badly advertised Diamond R100 (WL500g rebadged) router cheap. The main problems I face are antenna mounting. Will drop in some pictures soon.
