Taking down WB4SON-10 for software updates

Microsoft has identified critical flaws in Win 10 and asked users to install the latest updates.

I am taking WB4SON-10 down at 17:35 UTC and will bring it back up once the updates are installed

WB4SON-10 VHF Gateway Power Consumption

Here is a photo of the gear currently in use for the WB4SON-10 gateway. Power measurements taken over the past few days indicate that about 20 watts are consumed every hour; about 0.5 KWH/day or 175 KWH/year. At the going electrical rate in RI, that works out to about $34 of power per year.

WB4SON-10 Changeover Complete

WB4SON-10 (145.050) is back up an running on all new hardware. Hopefully it will be as stable as my temporary setup was.
