*Check for coverage
 
 
 
Your first step in determining if you fall within the CTWUG coverage area is to register yourself on [http://wind.ctwug.za.net WiND]. On this site you can enter your location into our database and check your line of sight (LOS) to CTWUG high sites aka broadcasting towers. Please note there is a short how to on the front page of the [http://wind.ctwug.za.net WiND] website. If you are unsure about coverage in your area, after using the [http://wind.ctwug.za.net|WiND] website, please come and chat to us on [[CTWUG_IRC|IRC]].
 
 
 
If you are still unsure about coverage in you area after using WiND and consulting a CTWUG member, you should book the CTWUG testkit and do a scan at your location. More details on the testkit [[Testkit|here]].
