		Trango's base radio is mounted to the roof of the camp's office.
		Trango was founded 10 years ago by Divjak, an immigrant from Croatia who had established himself in the communications industry with his ZCommunications, a manufacturer of voltage controlled oscillators.
		The Trango Towers were featured in an edition of National Geographic magazine that had been lying around the office and served as inspiration when the company got its name, said John Seaman, director of sales.

	Trango Towers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Trango II (6,327 m) lies northwest of the Monk, and the highest summit on the ridge, Trango Ri (6,363 m), lies northwest of Trango II.
		The east face of Great Trango is the world's tallest vertical rock face, and was first climbed (to the East Summit) in 1984 by the Norwegians Hans Christian Doseth and Finn Dæhli, who both died on the descent.
		This route ascends the South-East Face of the Tower, and was climbed almost entirely free (in stages, using fixed ropes to return to a base each night).

		Great Trango tower is reached via Dungee glacier and is supposed to be a dangerous approach as it includes objective dangers and rough terrain.
		Trango Towers are far away from Gondogoro Pass, but if you have the time and the energy and want to walk another way out, this is a beautiful alternative to walking back via Askole.

		All run off the Trango supplied power supplies, which are provided 230V from an inverter run off 2 x 12V deep cycle batteries, which are in turn charged from mains supply.
		The first winter after the 5830 release we had some APs locking up due to the power drop and trango fixed it with firmware that added the temp and heater commands to adjust when that heater kicks on.
		I believe that in some cases the trango gear actually corrupts packets, and so a corrupt snmp request to the AP locks it.

	Trango Info (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		It wasn't until 1975 that the area opened for climbing after being closed for many years and Nameless Tower was ascended for the first time by a strong British team on their second attempt in 1976.
		Great Trango Tower's main summit (6286 m) was first climbed in 1977 by Galen Rowell, John Roskelly, Kim Schmitz, and Dennis Hennek by the easiest route up the western side.
		The summits of Great Trango and Nameless are over 20,000 feet, so Acute Mountain Sickness (altitude sickness) is definitely to be considered, although the pace of a wall route, where climbers are usually averaging less than 500 feet of altitude gain per day, acclimatization is given time.
