[TowerTalk] Maine Weather (WEBCAM)

[David Gilbert]

Thanks for researching that.  I'm in the process of putting up a tower 
with a couple of HF yagis on it (finished digging the hole yesterday), 
and I've been thinking of mounting a webcam on the underside of the boom 
of the lower yagi.  I think it would be pretty cool if more hams did 
that, and in my case it would double as a security camera since I'm 
running extra cables (power and coax) for it in the trench back to the 
shack. 

That particular camera is pretty pricey but the picture quality is 
awesome.  Anyone know of a better alternative?

Hopefully this isn't off-topic since I plan to mate it with the tower 
and antenna.

73,
