The National Science Foundation and Mozilla are sponsoring an initiative to bypass the wired web to bring additional people online and to provide survivability in times of disaster.
Sound familiar? Seems we're already doing some of that; perhaps some of us should apply for some of the grant money to spice things up.

Maybe some of the Experts here can apply for this for our amprnet or the HSMM-MESH or the AERDN or all the other Radio network we use and then take the money to invest in our AMPRNET for better services (maybe IPV6 connection or VPN global server )

All,
I'm very interested in this. I could integrate this with plans for my section to implement 420 MHz and 900MHz HSMM connected to AMPRNet.
At this point, we only need the funds for access points, wi-fi cards and linear amplifier(s) (just the bare hardware). All the configurations, etc. are on the WIki. I believe I worked with Steve a few months ago; but funding has become the hold-up in the Washngton, DC area.
I could put together a case document where we would use HSMM/AMPRNet to stand-up a Red Cross station or one of our supported hospital centers.
Let me know...

Be sure review the baud rate and bandwidth limitations on the 70cm band. Even ignoring the regs, I have seen attempts cause QRM across a utilized 70cm band.
