Time Warner was pretty good about changing your cable modem speed in real time with just a phone call. We could up the bandwidth for a single event like the Dahlston Cup/Spring Air Fest and transmit a live feed in real time. After the event reduce the speed and they prorate the fee.

here are some long range video transmitters $389-$1200 LOS range of 7 miles to 50 miles, (for up on launch)

here are some security cameras that track objects like launching and landing hang gliders, one each for launch and LZ.

The 2nd video on this link shows the camera following a car and then a person.

But wait! there's more!

These new dog tracking GPS systems have a range of 9 miles and track up to 10 dogs at once and could be fitted to hang gliders and give a real time display on a flat screen TV in the Pavillion and transmitted over the internet live.

I would be on board to pay for WIFI as part of a group of users.
