I've created a new thread for you. Please use discussion here to get connected.

Howsit. I see you are in Panorama. Book the test kit from @Ogon and see if you can pick up @Fricken_Licken 300m from you.

@Moonfruit is your first contact.

Perhaps @Trojan could help out, I'm not familiar with the area

@trojan might be able to assist you. He has two AC Backbone links and an AC Omni in Panorama waiting for clients.

I am not sure @Moonfruit is still active? Might be a good idea to look for a new area admin in that area.

[Firestarter]

I'm sure @Trojan will be happy to assume that role.

[Ogon]

Book the test kit from @Ogon

The testkit is now at Cheaptrick https://forum.ctwug.za.net/t/cheaptrick-s-ctwug-owned-testkit/7766
Tip for using test do not extend the pole longer that 3m.

My opinion is to scan for the following sites Trojan, Firestarter and Atlas.

[Trojan]

Hey All, would be happy to do it. Lemme know if I'm needed.
@Firestarter
@Diabolix

[Ogon]

Hey All, would be happy to do it.

I added you as co first contact with moonfruit for the area. FYI Moonfruit was last seen on forum on 2015 November.

Hi All

I moved to Brackenfell End of 2015 so I am not active active on the Wug in Panorama anymore, Currently my equipment is up and active to serve clients connected to me.

He is more than welcome to scan my 2.4 Omni 2472 SSID: Fricken-Omni.

I do have an open IP to assign to one more client if needed. 2.4 SXT 300m seems good.

Unfortunately I do not have any 5ghz AP's

@JordaanFamily, any luck with this?

I would suggest scanning for one of the newer sites that popped up, Dual Polarity equipment makes a great difference so you will get a good connection.

@Fricken_Licken, have you ever considered asking your clients to assist financially with upgrading your site? That area needs it.
