Hi All,

I thought I would move on with a positive topic…

One of our repeater sites is solar panel powered without a lot of watt margin.  It will have two USB connected radios (currently on an RLC).    I am looking for comments on the best configuration for a low-low power setup using a mini-itx motherboard.

My only limitations are that it will need a WiFi adaptor with an external antenna jack for the 2GHz dish that points down the hill.  (I have a CentOS supported PCI card that tested out fine in the home system) and will need to be powered from a 12v supply source.

I had been looking at the many Atom core/dual core based boards and was just going to grab an Intel one lacking any guidance.  I just thought I would put it out to the group to see if there were any recommendations or “gotchas” and also for any info on the needed SATA flash etc.
