Exactly, We just have to be more creative on how we deploy and own our
sites. Property, Property and Property is going to allow wisps to
mitigate certain areas that cause pain from the bigger monsters.
Antenna tech has come along way in the last five years and that will
be our saving grace.
I like the use of a 180 deg 5G multi sector antenna that will give me 19
to 25db gain to hear our subscribers.

You have to think like the big monster does both technically and
politically.

Frankly, it's worse Caleb. The "rural broadband" allocation of 3.65
GHz is most definitively NOT WISP spectrum, but rather is spectrum
WISPs can use for a specific use. That in itself is rare, as the FCC
pretends it prefers "flexible use" rules that allow the market to
decide best use. In this specific case, the FCC determined the public
interest was best served by setting this spectrum aside for the
specific purpose of rural broadband. True (and I know it to be true
because I was there), their expectation was that WISPs would be the
ones to deploy most likely, but absolutely nothing prevents, say,
Verizon from rolling out a national 3.65 deployment should it want to
do so.

If I may put on my jerk hat for a second, what makes you think 5Ghz is
WISP spectrum? It's not, just like 900/2.4Ghz isn't. You can't own
unlicensed frequency, and as long as the gear is following P15 rules
then there's pretty much nothing that you can do. 900Mhz died that
way, and who knows what the future holds for 5Ghz. The only block you
could consider "WISP spectrum" is 3.65, and with so many using the
band that don't play by the rules with regards to registration etc I
think maybe the feds are going to have a hard time allocating more
this way.
Also, go ahead and point your stuff at big red/blue, and while you may
be within your legal rights it won't be a fun fight. Actually if they
are just one way 5Ghz for downstream then it won't do anything to them
anyway.
Or maybe I'm just tired and cranky.
