Today we took benefit of the nice weather to mount our first gateway in Bruges. The gateway is located on top of the VIVES building in the Xaverianenstraat. At the moment te gateway is not yet connected to the internet, but it should not take long until it is active and ready to use by everyone.

The gateway we placed is a Lorank 8+ with a GP 901C antenna. The same configuration we use in Ostend. The location in the middle of the roof might not be the best possible considering the building, but it was the best we could do at the moment.

We will do some testing in the next weeks (keep an eye on ttnmapper.org), and hopefully we could have an application ready for the open days at the VIVES campus.

A special thanks to VIVES to make this possible.
