Up a tower

Filed under: photos — rohan @ 20:56

Today I helped Inveneo bring decent Internet access to NGOs in Leogane by climbing up a 60m tower to adjust an antenna. Mark and I setup the matching antenna in Leogane at the Hands-On Disaster Response base there.

About to head up the tower. Nice view! I am happy that it is foggy because it is cooler. The bottom antennas are 2m terrestrial microwave antennas.

If you look carefully, you can see me up there…

Close up:

I am staying the night at Hands On tonight. Tomorrow I’ll be getting connections up to Save the Children and the Canadian Red Cross. A lot of very happy volunteers wanted to buy me a beer tonight, but I stopped at 3.
