Hi Doug. I’ve been a subscriber for some time. Watching, listening since being active on packet in the late 80’s thru 2001. I live in Port Ludlow where I would use The PTN node to connect to the digital world. That node doesn’t seem to be there any longer. 

Can you advise how I can gain connectivity to a node in your network and thus access a bbs for mail?

Many thanks.

We would need your precise address/location to plot line of site vs. obstructions to one of the northern cell sites (Blyn, Lookout, SnoDEM(Paine)).

You can do this yourself using http://www.heywhatsthat.com/profiler.html, to map the path from your house to one of those sites.

We need to update the Sites page to have the cell site coordinates for you.

SnoDEM: Snohomish County Emergency Operations Center (47.923864°, -122.244374°) on a 150ft tower

Blyn: 48.005941,-122.972276 at roughly 90 ft.

Lookout: (I don't have this location)

Hello,

I'm interested in setting up a new node at my QTH. I would like some help in determining if my home has a feasible link. I'm in the North Arlington/Stanwood area. If it is feasible I'll buy the equipment necessary.

Thanks for you time,

Jeff (KM6ISJ)
