Greetings all, Today I performed a re-test of connectivity at Evergreen Hospital in Monroe. Last year we were able to connect around/through trees west to SnoDEM @ Paine Field. Today's connection was a wide-open shot straight to Haystack. Back then Valley General Hospital was going through merger & acquisition growing pains and there wasn't much interest in HamWAN at that particular time. Last month after reaching out things have moved along very well and we appear to have very good support. An antenna location has been identified and they will be installing CAT5 from the roof to radio room in the next 2-3 weeks. This should give us time to have the pieces in place to connect Evergreen to SnoDEM and Providence for the upcoming Cascadia Rising drill in June. I hope to still add Everett Clinic this month as well. This will give us a long-overdue, good working core of EM-types to expand off of following the drill. Each installation will have a local EOC hotspot, VOIP phone, and laptop or desktop PC for web/email access. Thanks to Nigel, Bart, Tom, Ryan, Cory and the rest of the folks who have helped with VOIP, information, and other guidance to help make it happen. More as it develops. Cheers, Rob
