[K3PZN-List] Carroll County HSMM Network Proposal

[Pat and Laurie Kilroy & family]

CCARC, let's get on the map.  

I am starting to experiment with a high speed multimedia (HSMM) 
Amateur Radio network here in Carroll County, based on the IEEE 
802.11b wireless spec and in step with that article in QST from 
last month (that many of us have been *meaning* to read but 
haven't quite gotten around to yet).  Read it now.  It will 
knock your socks off.  

The main ingredient missing right now in my setup is a good 
external antenna, but I am working on it.  

If there are any individuals who would like to join me in 
extending this network beyond my 800-foot AMSL QTH a few miles 
south of Westminster then let me know.  Could be a lot of fun.  

Want more info?  Start with the web links I included below.  

Then see you on 145.410 MHz to chat.  

Sincerely,

Pat N8PK
