Make the WISP secondary to the primary user which would be your repeater or
any future amateur projects. No interference or they have to abandon the site.
Take their money if it works out, lose the money if they cause problems and
terminate the contract.

And scratch out the chance of ever making friends with any other
amateur in the area that has deployed, or is thinking of deploying, a 902 MHz
ham repeater... The 900 MHz ISM crap makes the 902 Amateur band in a lot of the
country almost unusable...
We actually had a WISP removed from our site due to the noise floor they
stirred up with their "certified" Motorola gear... Right of first refusal is
rather helpful in these cases.

Find out what gear they are using. Make sure it's FCC certified. If you have a
spectrum analyzer, or have access to one, have them fire up the gear and make
sure it doesn't have any spurious spikes within the 440 and 2m ham band.

I could use a little help here. I have a repeater tower with 2 meter
and 440 repeater on it. I have been contacted by a wireless internet
service provider about putting some 900 MHz stuff on my tower. The
deal they are offering is attractive but I'm wondering if there
would be interference issues between their stuff and my repeaters.
I'm going to be setting up a meeting to discuss technical aspects of
the proposed system, but I have no experience or knowledge in this
area and am not sure what questions I should be asking them. Any
suggestions or advice?
Thanks!
