This month’s meeting is an update on the work being done by the Wellington mesh steering group. The group has put together a plan to reactivate and enhance the various nodes around Wellington with the aim of making it reliable and a valuable asset for remote operations and AREC use. There are mesh nodes on many of the VHF Group’s sites and members’ homes, so it will be good to have them working again.

As we are still at level 2 this months meeting will be online, Paul Miller - ZL2BEZ will be presenting on programming DMR hot Spots.
