Is it a distance record? 98 mile link.

KE6BXT and myself completed the install of sector panel coverage this weekend. We were elated to see the Ventura County guys on Sulphur Mountain. For those of you not familiar with Southern California, this is flying over the top of Los Angles and 98 miles distance. On both ends are Rocket M2s with 120 deg sector panels at only 15dBi gain. This is ch -2 @ 10Mhz.

While the link is not stable, I did see an exchange of hostnames and a mesh status showed all the nodes on our combined mesh islands. This has been a pleasant unintended surprise! (pun intended given install is on Pleasants Pk :) ). We have confidence that we can build a solid link when we actually try.
