Over ~40 miles of sea, having ~30dB signal variance is normal unless you have spatial diversity, so it's expected to fade out often; it may not necessarily be alignment. On Tue, Jul 9, 2019 at 2:00 PM <psdr-request@hamwan.org> wrote:

Congrats on the link! You may be the first to use that Canada site from the USA! Welcome to international packet smuggling. :)

PS: I do notice your link is off now. I hope everything's OK.

Hello all,

We put up our first HamWAN connection today at Cape George (Port Townsend) WA for the Jefferson County Amateur Radio Club (W7JCR). The client configuration instructions on the hamwan.org <http://hamwan.org> site worked perfectly.

Link is 40.2 mi. -74dbm connected to Triangle Sector 2.

Using a 2ft dish (30dbi) and radio is Basebox 5 International, RB912UAG-5HPnD-OUT

Radio is on a rooftop 30ft above ground with clear LOS to Victoria and Triangle.

73 John, W0JCM
