 * 2011-05-23: TylerBooth helped me out with a 32-foot ladder and climbing skills to replace the old metrix box with a new 10-foot mast and a couple of ubiquiti bullets. Also rearranging my internal network quite a bit. HowardBarney of Bayhouse fabricated an antenna bracket for the new mast. --RussellSenior
 * 2011-01-12: Started working on deploying a replacement for the WDS/MIT-roofnet hybrid that has been here for several years. Last night, replaced the software on the rooftop devices with OpenWrt and Batman-Adv, a layer-2 mesh. Had some bumps during the process, primarily the breaking of the old WDS network when I upgraded to the most recent AirOS version. Had to drive down and recover it from the curb to get access to the admin interface. The ubiquiti nanostation5 on Jerry's roof probably ought to be re-aimed again and attached more securely so it doesn't slip on the mast so much. Next step is to replace the MIT Roofnet part. Might be possible to do that remotely, will investigate. --RussellSenior
