Notes

Connects to Fish Ranch using Mikrotik Wireless Wire RBwAPG-60ad (60GHz, 1Gbit Full Duplex)

Plans

• More ventilation work in ORCA box
• Replace current mount (which was temporary) with a better engineered solution
• Move current nodes onto new mount
• Add a dish similar to the Fish Ranch <-> Bruno dish and point it at Wolfback
