[arm-allstar] Remote Allstar Node

[David McGough]

Hi John,

I also use remote-controlled Ethernet Power switches, allowing easy 
power-cycling of hardware, etc....This strategy has saved having to 
make tower trips on many occasions.

if the remote Radio is on.I'm starting to think about a cheap WebCam 
pointed at the remote Radio. Â Internet connection atRemote site is 
pretty good and we use Dynamic DNS too to save a little coin.Thanks Doug.

 John,

 The radio does not "talk back" to Allstar with any status so other than
talking to someone at the other end you would have no way of knowing if it
is working. Is there not someone you can contact within range of the radio
to check it out?
