I suspect that both the ionosphere work and Cyrus One's new tower probably 
played an impact on all of that stuff.

The radios are gone from that building, and the 30' monopole on the south side 
of the street is now empty. I think there are 2 dishes left on the light pole. 

I think they pulled everything off the monopole about the time they actually 
got the electric service ran. It was running off a portable generator for 
almost a year.

And they've removed all their radios from it now. It's just sitting there 
empty.

That 31-acre plot is just above the datacenter in the picture. The only thing 
they've used it for is that brick building with shrubs around it right at the 
street.

LOL 'Enough Money' These are traders we're talking about. They have bottomless 
pockets. They'll spend $100M on a project just to see if it works, then abandon 
it 6 months later. The tower owners we talk to hate these guys, they come in, 
spend a ton of money on buildouts, then just stop paying rent a few months down 
the way and abandon everything. They've learned to just charge a lot up front, 
and these guys will pay it.

You don’t need to send much info to by or sell. I wonder if a troposcatter 
system could be licensed? 
Or launch a stratosphere balloon to use as an analog repeater.

Interesting. I’ll check it out.

It seems most of what I still notice are the Cielo radios. But 

almost all of the HFT Guys in Chicago have switched over to the 

Ionosphere antennas. Where they have the huge yagi antennas with 

just a single licensed link back to the Datacenter. I can count 10 

different sites within 15 miles that are using this setup. One of 

the towers we are on is in the process of installing a 3 antenna 

system, 30'x40' antennas at 100', 125' and 150'. Single licensed 

radio back to the CME datacenter.

The radios are optimized so that the data spends as few 

picoseconds as possible in the radio.

All the licensed gear I know of is full duplex, and 

should have near wire speed latency. The latency should be 

proportional to the link distance.
