I would like to see that the portal.ampr.org get shut off until that
all co-coordinators and owner, have the ability to changed networks that
were submitted. I have a request to change the netmask from a /29 to a /26.
All co-coordinators and the owner of the 44 network, for lack of
words, are lock out from doing any changes.
From my understanding is where the encap.txt file is being generated.

Dr. Om's,
We will be running a camserver on http://44.144.10.45/ this weekend
for the CQ.WW contest, with camera's in all the shacks of the ON7LR
contest station http://www.on7lr.org/ in Lier Belgium
The cam server is located at the contest station, where the shacks are
connected with a mixture of network cabling and 5ghz wifi links. The
contest station itself is linked via a 5ghz wifi link to another node
in Antwerp, 20km away, which in turn is linked over 5ghz to the
Antwerp Datacenter. Here we link to the fiberbackbone of a commercial
ISP and have an ipip tunnel to HamNet in Germany for AMPR
connectivity.
We also announce this 44 subnet to the internet, so its possible to
view these cams over the public internet, even if you are not
connected to AMPRnet.
I just wanted to share since this is the first time we are doing this
over AMPRnet :)

This is a quick message to my forwarding partners that on Sunday,
October 27, 2013, the SJVBBS (W6RAY) BBS will be offline for a short
time. The BBS will be moved to a Raspberry Pi with two TNC-Pis connected
to it. This setup will be located entirely at the repeater site (Park
Ridge) instead of via remote. The gateway IP address will remain the
same as will the AMPR IP addresses.
The setup is currently in testing using a different alias and SSIDs at
ground level. If the test is successful, then it will be installed at
the repeater site.

I investigated this before and there does not seem to be a rack enclosure for a reasonable number (like 4 or 5).
Probably the best bet is to get an old HUB or Switch, rip out all the electronics except the power supply, and
cut holes to fit the desired number.
There are also larger-scale custom made solutions, e.g. here: http://blog.raspberrycolocatie.nl/raspberry-pi-colocation/
I have a colocated Pi there.

I stumbled into a useful function that the Hamnet/HSMM folks have:
http://hsmm-mesh.org/hsmm-mesh-forums/view-postlist/forum-1-general/topic-5…
Maybe there is a way to do (code) something similar for the more
traditional nodes on the amprnet.
Advertising what is out there on a network seems to be a major issue
at least in my eyes.
Looking into networking some XBee Pro 900 Zigbee modules into a mesh
network on 902-928 MHz. I have the Digi development package and it
looks like I will need to either invent a TCP/IP stack for PC thru USB
to the Digi XBIB or else host the S3B radio on Raspberry Pi or
Beagleboards.
What are the groups thoughts on pros/cons on each?
Please if you need, update your ENCAP.TXT, as of this morning,
ve2pkt.ampr.org in back using a new gateway address.
Thank you.

I am not sure that overclocking is relevant to NAND flash. The issue is
quality control for the device. NAND cells are simple and the process
drives reliability significantly. Vendors pay per quality, which translates
to a number of cycles the device will endure. Well known brands demand and
get better dies. Overclocking NAND will result in timing violations that
will lead to failed commands - but it will not damage the die. This is
different from the traditional overclocking to death of CPUs. The order of
magnitude of power makes a significant difference.

Hi Demetre.
Have you studied the Compatibility list... Some are shown to be a bad
choice.. Some Kingston are listed as such.
My first two SD cards I got from Fry's Electronics and they were I think,
PNY brands. PNY I have found even their USB Sticks are junk.. But the two I
got were only $4 ea.. Bad choice for the Pi. One lasted a few weeks the
other until I had a sudden power outage about 6 weeks into it.
I now have 2 Kingston SDXC Card 128GB Class 10 SDX10V/128GB Running on TWO
pi.. Or Pi Squared.. lol
One is under heavy abuse.. I have tried experimenting with sudden power
outages, and constant read writes on one unit... And it has not suffered any
issues.. In Fact I even tried it from -20F to +140F for S&G's They are NOT
OVERCLOCKED.
The other runs w9hu BBS Linbpq..
What do you use to image the SD card I used to use Windows program WinDisk32
.. I think this is the biggest issue with the Pi SD Cards..
At least I have had no issues with mine since I stopped that practice.
Also what are you using that requires an external HUB.. You can also connect
a TNC (other serial devices) to the GPiO port instead of the USB. Have you
tried a PiTNC yet? Makes good topping.. :) it is the same size and sits atop
the Pi. Like Icing!!

PS I ll try to get back one the conv server as time permits..

Hi all,
If we are to use an external harddrive and an external USB Hub, why
not get a mini-ITX MBO powered with 12V and a small mini-ITX box? This
way we can have a decent CPU which is also low power in electricity
not low in computing power (about 30 watts total).
I think the RPi is only good in portable apps, but then again the SD
Card is a major handicap. It could be good for applications that are
not 24/7/365, such as an event where an AMPRnet GATEWAY is desired
only for a few hours or maybe a few days max. If you operate the SD
Card for more than a few days, it might get destroyed from the
constant write of log files, updating databases etc.
Can we have a system with no writting on the disk all the time? I'm not sure.
