OK, I'm not kidding, I'm going to bed now.
I think my work is finally done. This new system has been kicking my ass for a few days now.
With this, I'm going to bed.....

That's exactly how my week has gone.
I was NOT supposed to be working late this weekend.
[Bang]
Damnit!
[Bang]
Stupid projects...
Working on an RF pathstudy for an O/G customer.
Hurray for 1.5Gbps Microwave links, tying a hole batch of 1-2Mbps SCADA networks back to the office. Holy details though... Quoting/Spec'ing towers for wind loading and future growth, quoting RF hardware, and quoting about 6 months of labor...
Oh well... At least it's work...
I think this an english only forum. [ROFL2]Quote:

Mmmmmm SCADA
Aside from the misspelling of "whole" [facepalm] (stuff happens when you've been on the road all week, and then up till 4:30) that seems like English to me.... [Neene1]Quote:

In the case of this customer we are quoting and building a high speed wireless backbone ring (data can get routed either way, so even if a link goes down, the data can get back still) throughout their field, and then we are breaking off with much slower radios to go out to their end devices. Also on the main backbone towers we will have wifi access points for their field guys to get onto the corporate network from the field. With the access points we will put up, and the truck wifi kits that we usually sell to go with it, they can be up to 10 miles from the towers and still get good wifi access.
Sorry for the book, just thought I would share.
