A special delivery that I had hoped to review and get up on forum in time for the TTN-Conf…ah well…

Courtesy of @kenyu and the @rakwireless team I am pleased to say I was able to buy a pre-launch example of the new DIY Outdoor Gateway 🙂

Which I’m assured is **_the 1st review unit_** …so watch out for coming full unboxing pictures & video, assembly/build update, and later a review of configuration and performance in the field 😉

Much of which will get posted to the [RAK7249 - DIY enterprise gateway](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/forum/t/rak7249-diy-enterprise-gateway/22161) forum thread with appropriate links.
