Here's our setup at the Embry-Riddle Aeronautcial University Flight Line for Prescott Ernest A. Love Field




As for the antenna... We call it the Ghetto-Rod..... Will provide pictures when we figure out a new antenna situation.

I just discovered that feed a few days ago. It is excellent! I'm seriously considering attending ERAU-PR starting fall 2008, it's great to hear more younger pilots similar to myself. Thanks to everyone who set it up.

I noticed that the feed is down.  Is this just a temporary state for the summer?

[ERAU Doug]

You won't believe this...

Our antenna was struck by lightning... We lost pretty much everything but the radios. We have about 40 computers here at the Flight line and lost about a quarter of them including our streaming computer. We also blew the ethernet switch so no one has internet... And we JUST got the system up and running. So we have to wait for the new computers to come in now. Bummer. We also need to re-ground the antenna cause apparently it wasn't grounded enough. (And we aren't completely sure it was our antenna in the first place) We hope to have it up by next week. Sorry about the innconvenience!

Wow that's terrible!  Good luck in getting everything back up and running.

Not sure if there's one out there or not, but are there any plans for an ERAU Daytona Beach feed or could someone give me a link if there is?

[ERAU Doug]

We've been sending e-mails and talking with a couple people down in Daytona to see if we could get this set up with them, but it doesn't look like anything is happening. We just need to find someone who is willing to get it set up and running.
