[TheList] Scott's trip back in time

Fri Jun 5 18:55:04 AEST 2009

Didn't get any photos of his set-up did you? :)

I am posting this using the XT network, here where I am in Taupo it is better signal strength than Vodafone 2G and 3G, I haven't had any coverage issues with XT yet. I don't expect either to work in the middle of the bush in the middle of nowhere - that sort of expectation is what gets trampers etc into trouble!

Don't tell me the new telecom network is no good. And they paid me a fortune to drive around with a dude in the back with a computer and a kit with expensive cell phones collecting the data from all the cell sites around the country.

Mind you from the results I saw does not surprise me. :-)

Yeah yeah it's OK I know all that, I'm far more "connected" than you will ever be Mr Hansen. Doesn't help in the middle of the bush in a car rally where the telcos don't have reception though does it?

I was wondering the very same thing Bob

He's a bit young to be having a midlife crisis eh.

The Internet surely must have killed off ham radio, you can talk to

others in so many ways now.
