From discussions on [[BAM Weekly Working Group Aug 29th, 2022|weekly meeting]] it's clear that CCCC is willing to host many more nodes as part of the [[Bay Area Backbone|backbone]] project.
 
Unfortunately the proposed link to [[San Pedro]] is blocked by a tree. A longer term solution is to use the old telephone pole (left in the picture) as a mounting point instead.[[File:CCCCtree.jpg|thumb|200x200px|none]]

Completed Work

August 2023

  • Installed backbone airFiber 5HXD + 30 dBi dish pointing at Wolfback. Signal current low, but issue possibly at Woflback not here.
  • Installed hAP to manage backbone xlink.
  • Added EdgeRouter X SFP to power new radios plus provide Bay Area Backbone support.
