[App_rpt-users] Thinking Out Loud

[Peter Elke]

Alan/Adam,

I have been doing this all over the world with my RTCM (S/N 2 or 3) and
two MiFi units (one US, one EU) and it works great.

Driving around Athens on 434mhz coming out in SFO full time is way cool.

I take it all over, I think the RTCM had 80K Frequent Flyer Miles at
this point.

The only tricky part is that the home users can't tell if you drop out
of cell range.  Jim added an option so I can tell on the RTCM side but
the far end users can tell why you just disappear from time to time.

So, only a very short use period...

I'm currently running an RTCM at a remote repeater side, it's in full
duplex mode and acts as a full node to my allstar (acid) server at my
house.

I'm using a cradlepoint CBR400 router with a usb 4G FOB plugged into it
and the ethernet port plugged into the RTCM.  It's actually amazing at
how well this is working!

I'll let you all know as I get more time under my belt and I wait for my
actual inet connection there.

Alan

This is one of the things that I was curious about with this device, and
I'm glad to see that it works over the "4G" networks without major
issues given the potential latency of those things. Our club maintains a
couple of disparate repeaters and I'm not sure that a RF link between
the two is needed for any particular purpose. 

Our UHF coverage is fairly abysmal so I was trying to suss out the
merits of running a distributed repeater with lower power nodes hosted
by members within our designated coverage area. That may be dangerous
however.  Given the (as far as I know) inability to run multiple URI's
on a machine which may reboot (without re-assigning device IDs again)
and that half our group seems to not trust anything that looks like a
computer, the RTCM may work for them.
