We’re pleased to have Dr. Tim Wilkinson, President
of the Bay Area Mesh tell us all about it. There have been a lot of
upgrades to the firmware and Tim himself has tested hundreds of devices
using even more versions of the firmware over the last few years
constantly refining its ability to move data at internet speeds over RF.
San Bruno has probably one of the best networks with AREDN nodes on
major city sites such as the Sweeney Ridge Water Tank and City Hall.
Also, several members host additional sites and we’re fortunate to have
community leaders like Artichoke Joe’s allowing us to use space on
their buildings to expand the AREDN reach.
More is needed especially expanding out to our community neighbors like
South San Francisco, Millbrae and other cities that surround us.
it should be one of the most important topics for the Amateur Radio
community and we expect a large turnout including others from
throughout the county.
The EOC doors open at 6:45 for our meeting which starts at 7:00pm this Thursday July 9th.
We hope to see many of you there!

Our HF net continues on again this Wednesday evening at 8:30 p.m.
You can find the group on 40 meters with the frequency being 7.270 lower sideband for starters.
To reach net control for the evening, fire up your VHF radio and follow
on our simplex channel of 146.595 to make contact for updates or
issues. This is really important as we found ourselves moving to a
different frequency for various reasons.
