New subject: 5 ghz rooftop node in west oakland
Dang, I quit paying attention for a few days, and look what I miss! Great
news Marc, and thanks for documenting it so carefully -- and to Jenny for
blogging it. I'm glad I could help move this forward, and look forward to
connecting, hopefully this weekend!
If it will reach, I wonder if a nanostation on my end might be the way to
go, instead of a dish -- in order to offer more thorough coverage to the
area in between our houses?
Huzzah!
Pete

Pete and myself Installed a nanostation m5 on a
20 foot aluminum flagpole
in west oakland. The node is about 14 feet above the roof of a two-story
building. The total cost of this install ran to about $145 including all
materials.
Bill of Materials:
* One nanostation m5 loco
* One 4 foot wood beam of 3.5" by 3.5"
* Three 5" by 1/4" bolts
* Three 5/8" washers for bolts (optional)
* Three 1/2" washers for bolts (optional)
* Two 5" hose clamps
* 30+ feet of outdoor shielded ethernet cable
* Two shielded/groundable ethernet plugs
* A bunch of zip ties
The optional washers make it easier to tighten and untighten the bolts
(otherwise they dig into the wood).
Material sources:
* Nanostation from Amazon
* Flag pole from habor freight
* Everything else from home depot

New subject: SudoMesh to Hawaii?
Open Whisper Systems is hosting Winter Break of Code later this week in
Hawaii and we have this pesky air gap between our two houses. I have two
PicoS-tations here at TARDIS Farm which I borrowed to work on the batctl
LUA library and watchdog and thought they would do best to bridge this gap!
With the support of the list I'd like to toss these two APs in my bag
and setup the theoretically smallest mesh network in HI, returning the
APs back to Oakland no later than the 15th. I would be more than happy
to write a post about this and document the process such that the
temporary deployment is educational and thus productive towards SudoMesh.
If this might not be the best idea no worries, we'll just setup a
cantenna or something. Hope to see you all once more one of these
Thursdays, soon as I claw my way out of a few pre-existing engagements :)
