Stir Fry Satelite

March 1st, 2007 · No Comments

Kiwi bloke Ken Jones made a satellite dish from a $10 wok from the Warehouse (like Walmart) to run his home internet connection as well as a small UHF TV station.

This is exactly how North Otago’s newest television station 45 South is transmitting its signal from its studio to the top of Cape Wanbrow, in a bid to keep costs down.

45 South volunteer Ken Jones designed the wok transmitter in his spare time last year when he wanted to provide wireless broadband to his Ardgowan home.
