    LOS = Line Of Sight to a transmitting station, if you think you can see Tonabrooky where the node is you have a good chance of connecting, but you never know what you can see until you do a proper test.

    I've just received an e-mail asking me not to "advertise" this node as apparently it's not open for public use. I'm now looking into which nodes are public and are not, I'll post again when I know for sure. I've deleted my previous posts on this matter.

    Sorry for getting your hopes up,
    Fobia.
