    • Mathison raised the relative complexity of flashing AC devices. Nothing really to be done about it as firmware is now signed.
  • Site and Club churn
    • Site access and Club personnel is in flux in various places are people leave and new people arrive. It has made some projects slower to move along.

    • Also like to upgrade the 60 GHz dish to a larger model to better handle rain fade
      • Jim inquiring with Brian about a visit
      • Tim inquiring with Matthew to make sure the replacement is okay
  • Pending AREDN release
    • Probably do a new release this month

  • CARLA
    • Tim asked if we have contact with any CARLA folk as they made many places where AREDN might be a good addition.
