Our most recent Tech Night focused on AREDN projects our members can do. You can view a description of the projects we discussed here.
We took a multi-vote at the end of the Tech Night to gauge interest and prioritize NARS training and potential funding. Here are the results of the vote:
Project #4 (NARS Portable Camera System) is a club project, and we will be preparing a proposal for approval by the NARS EC.
Which of these projects would you be interested in doing? Please reply to this post to let us know what you’d be interested in. Perhaps you have an idea for an additional AREDN project? Please post your idea here.
We have a club breakfast this Saturday, December 13th at 8:30am at Denny’s in Nashua – see this forum post for details
After the breakfast, we will head back to our (AB1OC and AB1QB) QTH to work on Project #9 above – Build and Operate a Modern IT Core System.
We will be working on building the a new rack of data networking and image processing equipment for the AREDN network in New England. If you’d like to get some hands-on experience with enterprise-grade networking and server equipment, please join us.
You can get our address on QRZ or, better yet, join us for breakfast and follow us home. We will start around 10:30 am.
I can’t this weekend due to having the kids, but home lab/networking is my work area. Some girls like to knit to relax, I love soldering, networking and learning. I can help out later next week if there’s some further help needed.
73s, Emily
FB Emily. I am planning to continue work on the new core network rack here next week. Would you like to come by one day next week and give me a hand? I should be at the stage where I am cutting over some AREDN services from the existing core network to the new one.
Here’s some more information about the current setup here –

The new core setup we are working on is covered on slides 24-27 and from slide 33 onward in the recent Tech Night materials here.
Can you tell us about your homelab and networking setup? It sounds interesting.
Thank you for the tech night slides! I usually have the kids so it’s hard, but hoping to be joining a Zoom to watch/interact soon 🙂
My home lab is very humble compared to yours, but a large k8s cluster, small proxmox cluster, Home Assistant for home automation, sso with Authentik (for openID and ldap auth), similar tools looks like too with Uptime Kuma, and other things. Build pipelines from Gitea->Jenkins->docker registry, etc. Helps me learn and keep fresh for work/career.
My home network saturated my /24 , so been migrating to a /16 so I can separate certain things easier and better deal with adding additional services without having to juggle addressing…
Recently been getting into mesh network, packet again, experimenting with mesh networking (learning from the FARPN team on their Matrix instance https://wiki.farpn.net/) . However was big into APRS for many years.
In addition to Meshtastic and Meshcore, recently been experimenting with Reticulum for encrypted mesh networking… not ham friendly but fascinating. FARPN has been experimenting with it to connect links over the network. Network agnostic meshing and communication. Very easy to set up links via LoRa/Wifi/Lan/WAN, etc, and can go from just 11-12bit/s to multi-gigabits.
