[KCDXC] Going Home!

[N0UF]

Greetings and Salutations from the newest employee of the Hutchinson 
Telephone Company.  Hutch Tel is located in MinneSNOWta about 
50 miles west of Minneapolis on hwy 7,  50 miles south of my home
town St Cloud and 18 miles from Linda's folks.

They provide dial tone, long distance, cable tv, dsl, web hosting, pay per
view, cell service and more.  I have responsibility for the Cisco routers
that handle E-mail and DNS to start with and am expected to know
about everything else eventually.  We just finished a trial period with Sky
Pilot to provide wireless internet service for around the many lakes in the
area and it didn't live up to it's marketing hype. They advertise a 20 mile
range, we couldn't get two miles out from a 60 foot antenna location.

The Company Picnic was yesterday, timing is everything! Great People, 
Great Job, Great Company,  wish I'd went to work for them 36
years ago and not Northwestern Bell.

Were hope to be moved before the first snow fall.

73,
Bob, On The Road Again,  Roske, N0UF
