I'm thinking what we have to

Submitted by Crenshaw Sepulveda on Fri, 05/26/2006 - 11:12am.

I'm thinking what we have to do is to get a broadband connection into the Olympian Apartments, right by Sylvester Park. The olympian is 6 stories high and they have a nice antenna mast up top. The connection would cost around 50 bucks a month. The equipment to spread the signal around downtown would probably cost a couple hundred bucks. I'd imagine with proper antenna location, and a high power signal we could cover a significant area of downtown.

Sometimes you have to take matters into your own hands to get the higher up powers to do something. I think this would be a great experiment and we would also be helping the seniors and disabled in the olympian apartment with a broadband connection, not to mention the Fleetwood.

I propose we call it OlyNutria Net.

I meant to shut off the comments on this post, so we could discuss it over at Better South Sound. Sorry.
