Mr Warren Yu, Microsoft MVP was the guest lecturer for the VB.NET training held at Northwestern University.
The class was fully attended by educators from around the region and featured full hands on labs for the attendees.
Bitstop wishes to thank Microsoft and Mr Yu for the invaluable time in supporting efforts of this type in the region. Our kudos also to the organizers led by Mr Franz Felipe of NU.
Pictures of the events will be posted here.
Sir Sonny Santiago of the PMS (Presidential Management Staff) and Francis Vidal jointly undertook a wireless site survey of 802.11 broadcast patterns from Mt Sto. Tomas in Benguet.
The 2 day affair over rough roads generated enough wealth of data for us to process and plan for future wireless 802.11 deployments in the Benguet, La Union and Pangasinan area. Photo is the view from the propagation site. Notice the Lingayen Gulf in the background.
The survey made use of Cisco BR350 and 13 dbi Omni Antenna mounted on the PMS site in Mt Sto. Tomas. We were able to get a 50db rating at SM Baguio in the city of Pines!

Bitstop is happy to announce that PLDT has installed our 3rd PLDT E1/R2. This brings to 7 the total number of E1/R2 lines we have for servicing our clients.
Each E1/R2 is capable of handling 30 lines. The 7 E1/R2 lines provide a total of 210 lines. Each line is capable of providing v.92 compression, 56k line quality.
Our thanks to the Digitel Team led by Mr Job Relatore who tirelessly debugged the 4th E1/R2.

By the way, we are also adding one more PLDT E1/R2. By the end of this week, if plans do not miscarry, Bitstop will have a total of 210 56-k v.92 lines!
