* longshots: Florenville-Arlon Longshot 36,5km (10 Apr 2003 18:45) - Longshot between Florenville (Waveguide 32slots placed on the church tower) and Arlon (Yagi of XavierVL). Distance 36,5km. Data transfert of 50ko/sec during 5 minutes but we didn't succeed to do the same after, we were quite disapointing... We think that the fresnel zone was not so good to realize a good link. Some pictures here. {{http://people.ffii.org/~zoobab/bh.udev.org/filez/tmp/longshot-90.jpg}} |
