Looking for ATCSMon helpers along the line

If you like watching trains, you should give ATCSMon a try. I've been using it here in Libby with just a basic antenna. I also take a radio and a laptop when I'm out by the tracks. It's a solid way to see signal activity in real time, so you can know what's happening instead of just waiting around.

I'm looking for some people near the tracks to help keep an eye on things. It doesn't use much data at all; you just need an internet connection, a scanner, an antenna, an old computer, and an iMic. I have some extra equipment if anyone wants to try it out.

Also, the area east of Sandpoint could really use some coverage too.
 
That sounds really cool! how difficult is it to set up the equipment if someone's totally new to this kind of thing?
 
More helpers nearby would boost coverage for sure, good call.., especially east of Sandpoint. I have extra gear if anyone wants to join

ATCSMon is great, been using it a while myself., I'd be up for helping with coverage, especially around sandpoint. Let me know what gear you've got available and what setup you're running
