[FOSDEM] GSM BTS at Fosdem 2011?

[Jan-Frederik Martens]

Hi Dirk,

> just take a look at www.eventphone.de ...

A DECT network has been considered in the past but we didn't follow 
through on it, mainly because providing decent coverage would require a 
-lot- of equipment.
Although the distance between the buildings furthest from each other is 
'only' about 300 meters, those buildings have thick reinforced concrete 
walls which severly dampen EM frequencies.

Cheers,

JF
