Attempt to Live Stream St James Meeting

Post by medic5740 »

Tonight, March 6, 2013, News on the 'Net is attempting to live stream the St. James meeting beginning at 7:30 pm. The two wireless antennas are more than a half mile apart, which is why this is being called an attempt.

Thank yous to the Chamber of Commerce for their help in this test.

Neat. What model wireless antennas did you use for this?

Antenna for wireless

Post by medic5740 »

This is the antenna that I used:

Alfa 2000mw 2W Waterproof Marine high power Long Range Outdoor 802.11 B, G, N, USB wireless network Wifi Adaptor with Integrated 12dBi Antenna

I did not have the antenna outside. That may account for the delay times. There was almost a twenty second delay from the actual actions and sounds, but the video was pretty clear.

The Chamber of Commerce will add an outdoor antenna and purchase a faster speed connection in order to support Joeâ??s Beaver Island TV plans. We are pleased to contribute to this worthwhile project. :D

Huge Thank You's and kudo's to the Chamber of Commerce for helping to make the Internet more available, not only to News on the 'Net for the live beaverisland.tv broadcasts, but also for improving the Internet access for everyone in the general area of the Chamber office including the public marina, the boat dock, and the park across from the Shamrock.

Thank you!

Joe Moore
