Our here on Beinn Mhialairigh. Plenty wild beasts on the hill today! Just making a few wee changes to our radio frequency use and installing a new VPN server for slightly easier remote management than the current setup.. apologies for the few seconds outage for Drumfearn and Heaste, we were just moving both radios onto new channels to free up some spectrum for HUBS, who have been going slow here for the last week.

We don't often show the network mapped out, but here it is (minus Aird). Originally we had a mast on Rum, and we built the Loch Dougal mast (second bottom) to replace this, which is our only off-grid site. The network hasn't changed layout other than that since we built it in 2015. We plug into the West Highland Internet Exchange (WHIX) at the two most easterly points on the map, Mallaig and Beinn Mhialairigh; where we hand over to a company called HUBS who take us down to Edinburgh, to one of the big Internet Exchanges in Scotland. Just in case anyone is interested! 😄

Caught a nice gap in the showers to install a new monitoring server for Skyenet at Beinn Mhialairigh, looking over Loch Hourn. Lovely up here!
