query<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Hey Peter,<BR><BR>I'm not sure what happened to GHO - our vice
president Peter Buncle manages that node. There are plans to move GHO and
other backbone nodes to the 5GHz band in the long term to avoid the excessive
noise suffered on 2.4GHz. Peter has been given approval to source new
antennas from Melbourne Wireless funds - he is very kindly donating the radio
hardware out of his own pocket. There are no immediate plans to remove the
2.4GHz links as far as I am aware. It may be that Peter has been
testing/configuring GHO in preparation for the upgrade.<BR><BR>Mr Buncle, the
floor is yours. What news do you have regarding your progress with the
upgrade?<BR><BR>Are you aware of the change to the radio channel for the GHO
southern interface? Or is the radio simply configured to automatically use
the channel with the least amount of noise?<BR><BR>Cheers,<BR>Tyson
Clugg.<BR><BR>President, Melbourne Wireless Inc.<BR><BR><BR>

It is still listed as being on Channel 6 in the node
