[Olsr-users] Hello from Pirate Party Sweden

Hi,

> a wifi router (openWRT) as high up in the atmosphere as possible. The
> wifi-router will have a somewhat better antenna to test how far
> connectivity can be achieved.

Very exciting.

> The second goal for this baloon is be modified to survive for a very
> long time, fully operational on its own, powered by solar panels and
> drifting by the wind only.

Very, very exciting.

> On-board, we are currently investigating the olsrd software as coming
> along, aswell as a small website. The intention is to provide a
> network connection to all that can reach the baloon with wifi.

What's the hardware like?  Multiple radios?
