Is there anything that I can do to > help? Yes, this is about the RIPE-NCC Test-Traffic measurement box (or test-box). Paul Thornton started installation, then left and handed it over to Maurizio, Maurizio started to work on it but I didn't hear from him for a while, which is why I sent a reminder. Basically the problem is this (but before digging into this, you might want to check if Maurizio has dumped this on somebody @linx): The box (ripe-tt.linx.net) will be used to measure delays in the Internet. It has a GPS antenna in order to sync it's internal clock. The antenna has to see some fraction of the sky. Paul thought of a suitable spot for the antenna, but in practice, it wasn't. I then agreed with Maurizio: ---- (Cut and paste from email) ---- The box seems to be working as it should but the antenna location is really bad. It sees some satellites but the signals are noisy and weak, and definitely not strong enough for the receiver to realize that it has been moved from Amsterdam to London. If you think that you have a better spot for the antenna, please try to put it there. ---- That's the last I heard. To get the ball rolling again, who, if anybody, @linx is working on this?
