Hello from Ventura County

Hello and Welcome to Ventura County,

New map service - Ventura County

Hi all, I've recently put up an experimental map server on the node here in Ventura County, which plots out current Ventura County Fire Department calls, Southern California Edison blackouts, and earthquake activity. (other data pending, including NOAA weather events, local APRS traffic via 2m, and air traffic via ADS-B and DTV dongle). Ideally, a lot of that information would be coming via the mesh from an EOC, but for development purposes some of this is pulled from Internet sources.

You can peruse this at:

Interest in linking to Santa Barbara?

I just got started with AREDN (but have operated 802.11 links to Santa Cruz island for 10 years) and am wondering whether anyone in Ventura county with view of the mountains behind Santa Barbara / Goleta is interested in trying to link up. My node is N6TVE-WCC-BM2HP-SE60, which is a Bullet M2, located @2100' near San Marcos pass above Goleta pointed SE with a 15dBi Yagi, ch -2 / 10Mhz. I can upgrade to a grid antenna if necessary.

FD Setup

Station AA6CV (Conejo Valley ARC) prepping for Field Day. Photo via digital mesh network - 3 hops on 2.4 & 5.8 GHz. About 40 miles total path length (much shorter as the crow flies, but hills suck for microwaves...)

Link from Port Hueneme to Santa Barbara

73 all! I currently have a 2.4GHz link from my home in Port Hueneme all the way up to Gibraltar Peak in Santa Barbara. Using a Rocket M2 and a Rocket Dish, it's a pretty solid link at 33+ miles! It's not very fast all the time, but I have seen it get up to 11Mbps at times. If anyone would like to link up to us, I encourage you to do so. The Santa Barbara Amateur Radio Club has been having A LOT of mesh network activity in the recent months and we'd all love to link up with all of you. Are there any plans for perhaps putting a node on Red Mountain to link the 2 counties together?

Yet another node on CP

Thought you'd like to see this photo.   It's me adding a 3GHz node to the cluster on Chatsworth Peak, between Simi Valley and the San Fernando Valley. This was done last Saturday.  The day before, I put an NSM3 up on my tower in central Simi Valley (about 5 miles away).   The two nodes established a link easily.  Running iperf under AirOS we're getting 17-18 Megabit/second.  

We need to decide on a frequency & distribution plan for Ventura County before we deploy more 3 and 5 GHZ stuff.
