Tower At NORSU Area Constructed

I purposely went home last Saturday to check on a few things related to the Malusay Wireless Network. So far so good, the 70-foot BH1 tower at the NORSU area is now up. Popoy called me as soon as I arrived to see the site. Using a PocketPC, I was able to confirm that we have the signal from BH2. 

There are a few things needed for this tower such as the power source, but Popoy will also take care of it. We also have to improve the grounding system for protection against lightning and other static discharges, install a protected box for the UPS and other devices. Jerry will take charge of the tower lighting out of 4.5-volt LEDs he planned to assemble.

At BH2, the pfSense box is already up and running and serving DHCP IP addresses to those who will try to connect through Node1. I left it running until I will be back during the Holy Week--- that will be next week.

Benjie scheduled to file application for internet connection in Dumaguete yesterday. Hopefully, the power supply and the grounding system will be ready when the ISP comes for installation.

We are progressing with this project and the construction of BH1 tower, the confirmation of the strength of the PowerStation AP being detected at BH1 tower, and the application for internet connection from the ISP are considered another milestones that we have done.

I will post images as soon as I have it from Popoy when he documented the BH1 construction.

Keep posted!
