In the center of the Drechtsteden I hav already a time aa gateway, outside, next to the HamRadio DMR repeater antenna and a link on Hamnet, a dedicated IP network for Radio-Amateurs.
This gateway is based on a RAK 2245 on an RPI and connected to a Katrein 800 MHz Antenna. (The small one on the picture). This runs very stable a is covering a nice area in the center of the Drechtsteden.

I hope more gateways can follow to make a even better coverage in the Drechtsteden. Together with some nice projects based on nodes I am sure this community has a lot of advantages in TTN.
