Rage HS Diabolix MIMO set - 14th November 2010

We have previously attempted to establish a link with Diabolix and have not been able to keep a stable link. The solution to this (as demonstrated with the pmurgs link) is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIMO.

Due to space constraints at Rage, we set up a cross-bar, upon which the Diabolix grids were placed, as far from each other as possible.

Participants

Rage
Bigmikedavis
pmurgs

Plan

Bigmikedavis and pmurgs meet up at 10am at Rage.

Results

The following was done:

  • scarecrow cross-beam, with grids were added
  • stay-wire added to mast
  • scanned for Phebos
* Connected, but link was unusable
  • scanned for Diabolix
* Connected later, but link was unusable
* UPDATE: After some adjustment (frequencies and settings), the link is up and usable at 6Mbps each way.

We are waiting for Diabolix to complete his portion of the MIMO setup.
