	Yes a SETIcam!!! Pictures are Great , now a Webcam pointing at the rack !!!! (to view Server action)not hard working staff [unless they wan' to be ON] that would be different SetiCAM !!!! The heck with a cam pointing at the equipment rack, get one pointing at the antenna at Arecibo! googleing seems they aint got one at arecibo :( not far away http://www.weather-forecast.com/locations/Arecibo/webcams/latest :) From what I understand, the folks at Arecibo don't much like unshielded electronics anywhere even remotely close to them. If I remember right, the staff have to bike or walk about a mile from the closest parking? I have no accurate idea when or on what show I saw the documentary, but it was at least a decade ago.

	the antenna at Arecibo doesn't do much ,in the way of moving etc so stills are fine . the scenery would be great ,the weather would play havoc with a webcam ,but the Server cam ,would let us all see ,in real time what Activity was happening at the heart of seti. of course multiple cams[Arecibo & Server rack] would be great but the bandwidth would have to be small so the Science projects are kept running . How about a webcam sending a still image every 60 seconds to a external FTP. I'll donate some FTP space on my dedicated if they want to set something like that up. :) ____________
