We ran into this once but a little discussion on legal issues stopped it pretty 
fast.

Why are they unplugging the AP?  Just give them free Internet and here's the 
contract - you provide power, we provide Internet and insurance.

Personally these arrangements make me nervous.  Some of the AP hosts seem to 
have a major sense of entitlement with regards to how much help they want with 
their internal stuff.  Others are completely nice.

Imagine one of your really off the wall, crazy customers.  Now Imagine they 
have the power to unplug your AP's if they aren't happy.  How do you know ahead 
of time that the person isn't one of these crazies?

....there's an economic case that can be made, but I'll always be nervous about 
it.

+1 what Rory said.  Also make sure you get a written contract.

I would give the free service at minimum.  I may throw in $50-100 per month for 
power (even though we use less than $5.00).

Rory, I was wondering how much you give to the property owner on a monthly 
basis.

Darin, 50% off sounds reasonable. That's actually what I was entertaining.

Budget around $600 unless you are relaying through.

Subject: [AFMUG] How much to pay for a small repeater site?

I'm working on some small repeater sites with few customers (normally 5-10 
possible). What is a typical payment for use of such a low volume location?

[I decided to ask after seeing Rory posted a picture of 1x backhaul and 1x omni 
on a rooftop. This setup is very similar to what I have planned. I expect to 
regularly use one backhaul dish and one or two radios for local service.]

Thanks - Chris
