Comments:

Several seasoned NX6T San Diego Contest Club and SCCC OPs made an attempt
to run NX6T remotely from Anza Radio Ranch ( W6BH (SK) site now owned by
John WA6TQT, who graciously hosted N6KI, K6AM, N6NC and N6CY REMOTE OPs).

Slow internet connection after much maneuvering of ways to get faster data
etc failed and N6KI (I gave up after 5 minutes !) and K6AM dropped out (
after 2 hours) of the Anza remote operation effort, leaving N6NC, N6CY and
VE4EA

ANZA remote experiment failed due to dropped
packets with poor internet speed. Going to Plan B on that issue. Fiber
connection is coming to Anza but we can't find out yet, whether it will be
5 months or 5 years. Finding a 20 to 30 mB Download / Upload source in Anza
has been problematic and maybe some faster data coulb pulled of from a cel
4G LTE provider. N6NC, N6CY and VE4EA tried to do most operating during
hours when other local users in the Point to Point Microwave service, were
off line - mainly nightime and early A.M when pops and dropouts of audio
and keyboard lag were minimal.

Definitely like showing up a gunfight with a knife.
