replying partialyl to myself, partially to jake below..
And if it wouldn't work to do a p2p link, how far can we get, and maybe
find some allies on the way? (eg the apt bldg across the street that used
to have gear?)
Per gMaps it looks like a straight shot, however are there hills, tall
buildings, trees, etc? Is there a way to ascertain this online?
In the meantime, I just did a quick G street view, and it looks like the
building right across on 47th and perhaps a billboard or 2 might be the
…
[View More]only tall/blockers, I'm not sure what that means the options are, going in
front, going over, otherwise? (On shattuck) Also where does Omni have mesh
connections with in the neighborhood, would it make more sense to go from
there?
warmly, ajay
