Rich,

I am on their mailing list and see the price.  What is the difference between this one and the Allied version that is cheaper?

The cheaper Allied version is the B+ while the Element 14 is the new RPi 2.? Here is how one blog summed up the difference:? Raspberry Pi 2 vs Raspberry Pi B+: Which Should I Buy?

The Raspberry Pi 2 maintains the compact form factor of other Pi models, but there's one key difference - it's shedloads more powerful. The board's new Broadcom SoC boasts?a quad-core ARM Cortex-A7 CPU running at up to 900MHz, easily topping the 700MHz single-core ARM CPU found in the previous chipset. A Videocore IV GPU remains a constant?in both products, but memory is doubled in the latest model, with the Pi 2 coming with 1GB of RAM compared to the B+'s 512MB. More RAM, more CPU cores, higher clock speed - the Raspberry Pi 2's hardware is superior to the B+ in pretty much every way.

Don't know what will show up on the reflector, but hopefully the cut and pasted section from the blog will.

Let see if hotmail sends it this time. I have been having problems
with them.

I'll have my laptop with me at the next club meeting if I can't
Chirp working.

Maybe someone can show me what I have been doing wrong.

The MESH net meeting was very successful 

??? - very high attendance??? - potential to energize the club with a interesting and useful project??? - potential to allow many members to participate to further a useful capability
While the actual, best use capabilities may not be absolutely clear, in plugging ham radio links into the internet, and allowing familiar hardware items to be used for this interface, it could offer profound impact.? 

Our presenters from Frederick County were 'off the charts' in practical knowledge and enthusiasm.? 

One presenter left enough hardware for us to get a link on the air!? N3SB is coordinating the club in this action.? We have several hams with significant knowledge that can jump in on this project, and at least one with candidate hardware to plug in.? 

My own feeble thoughts -- best to locate mesh net RF in places that can readily host the computing resources.? It would seem that tall buildings are more natural than towers in this regard, especially when they are sited in high spots.? It would also seem that these links can be much cheaper in hardware than repeaters.? what we don't want is a resource taking gobs of volunteer IT time, but perhaps a modest network will not take much to sustain it.?

I really wanted to make it to that presentation, but kid activities dictated otherwise. I have recently flashed a WRT54g with the appropriate software, and got myself a couple of appropriate yagi antennas.?? I would love to set up a node at my location and connect to something, but looking at the map from the website I don't think anything is close enough.? Any follow up meeting or discussions planned at this time?
I would love to get involved with this.

thanks for checking in!  you are just who N3SB is waiting to hear from!  (email him if he does not find this traffic).  

WA3MEJ, Jim may also have some hardware.

I really wanted to make it to that presentation, but kid activities dictated otherwise. I have recently flashed a WRT54g with the appropriate software, and got myself a couple of appropriate yagi antennas.   I would love to set up a node at my location and connect to something, but looking at the map from the website I don't think anything is close enough.  Any follow up meeting or discussions planned at this time?
I would love to get involved with this.

The MESH net meeting was very successful 

    - very high attendance    - potential to energize the club with a interesting and useful project    - potential to allow many members to participate to further a useful capability
While the actual, best use capabilities may not be absolutely clear, in plugging ham radio links into the internet, and allowing familiar hardware items to be used for this interface, it could offer profound impact.  

Our presenters from Frederick County were 'off the charts' in practical knowledge and enthusiasm.  

One presenter left enough hardware for us to get a link on the air!  N3SB is coordinating the club in this action.  We have several hams with significant knowledge that can jump in on this project, and at least one with candidate hardware to plug in.  

My own feeble thoughts -- best to locate mesh net RF in places that can readily host the computing resources.  It would seem that tall buildings are more natural than towers in this regard, especially when they are sited in high spots.  It would also seem that these links can be much cheaper in hardware than repeaters.  what we don't want is a resource taking gobs of volunteer IT time, but perhaps a modest network will not take much to sustain it.
