[FADCA] Suggested Plan

[Bryan Pollock]

Greetings to all,

My name is Bryan and my call sign is W4BSP.  I am not a member of the 
FADCA. So I can't vote on motion on the table.  I just happen to be on 
the mailing list.

I was sorry to here about the possible disbanding of the group.  So I 
thought I would throw out and idea which may possibly rekindle the 
groups fire.  Although you may have already considered it, here is the idea.

I think the digital communications network you already have is still 
desirable one.  Would any of you support updating it from a 1200/9600 
packet system, to one based on the wi-fi system such as what has been 
promoted by the "Broadband-hamnet"? http://www.broadband-hamnet.org/   
As many of you are already aware, it is for the most part self 
configuring and much higher speed. I belive some in the group already 
did some test setups a while back. They now have software for Ubiquity 
equipment and it can function on 2.4 or 5 GHz frequencies.  I would be 
willing to do my part by putting up a node here in EL96.

Anyway it's just a thought.  Kick it around, and I will be on the sidelines
