The tower climber is Brian Kline WA6QDP
Future Plans
- Install 10GHz dish to FS8
- Install 60GHz dish to Sunol Ridge
Completed Work

- Added Mikrotik CRS112 and Mikrotik hAP ac2 inside shack
- Added Rocket 5ac lite + 90° sector on ham tower
Commercial Neighbors
Mount Allison is very crowded with many commercial neighbors. The spectrum use between 5 GHz and 6.2 GHz can be found here, but starts at 5.945 GHz and runs though to 6.197 GHz. The spectrum not in use is that allocated to amateur radio.
