[UK-CONTEST] How much data traffic for telnet cluster?

[Stewart Rolfe]

At Bob's suggestion I connected to his GB3UJS-3 full RBN feed and left the dongle sucking in spots for a while. After an hour the rough stats told me a total traffic of 3.91Mb which means 100Mb should cover it over 24 hours. Should be able to watch a bit of telly as well if it gets really slack.....
Don't normally do assisted but there doesn't appear to be any choice in ssb field day...(?)

Hi,
Has anyone ever measured the volume of data transfer for a telnet connection to a cluster node?
Going to play around with a broadband dongle in ssb field day and our PAYG device has a 500Mb daily 'limit' and not really sure how that's going to work out in practice. Not sure how strict they'll be if you do go over, it's a T-Mobile dongle.
Thanks,
