Wilderness Wireless Internet on OAUSA Tonight
Frank Keeney
Have you been somewhere, perhaps camping or traveling and you need Internet
access or need to make a phone call? Your cell phone or EVDO card has no
signal bars and Windows wireless networks is empty of hotspots?
Tonight I'll be discussing this topic on the Outdoor Adventure USA
(http://www.oausa.net) Amateur Radio net on the Keller Peak, California
repeater (146.385+ PL 146.2) or on the Internet at Echolink node KE6TZG-L at
7:30pm (Pacific).
We'll discuss several different satellite Internet services, satellite phone
services, the SPOT Satellite messenger and some discussion of using Amateur
Radio satellites.

Hmmm... when I go out into nature for camping/hiking etc, the last thing
I want is phone/internet. :)
Like when my wife and I went to mammoth for our anniversery.
Phone/internet not being there made
it that much better.

Oh, I understand. But if I have the choice of being able to stay in the
"wild" for a week and do a little work vs. needing to shorten the trip to
rush back to work, I'll take the longer trip.

... then there's us citified folk who, upon finding ourselves in the "wild"
realize that something has gone very wrong and we need to get connected to
get us the hell outta there!
