Even if I were at the "UBNT WISP starter kit" stage I'd at least do a 
decent mount lest the thing flip over in the wind and break stuff that 
will cost more to fix. Fixing broken equipment isn't making even 
dollar count.

LOL ….

A number of years back we had some contracted tower crews working in very harsh 
conditions …. it was almost -40C, winds steady at about 25MPH and visibility at 
less then 50ft …. 4 guys went up the tower at daylight and were up on the tower 
until nightfall… three days in a row.

The first day they recommended that nobody go to the east of the tower where 
there was a treeline and of course anyone on the ground to ensure they had 
their hard hats on at all times etc… lots of tools, parts etc going up and down 
the tower and accidents happen.  I didn’t quite understand the reference to not 
heading to the east of the tower (which was of course the direction of the 
wind)…. after early afternoon came around, some of us were sitting around the 
base of the tower when suddenly it “clicked”… “umm, the guys are not coming 
down at all - what happens after they have had some drinks to stay hydrated and 
… well…. they gotta go?”  - answer was pretty simple … “don’t be to the east of 
the tower”…. I laughed… the day went on, nightfall came around and the guys 
returned to the bottom exhausted….

The second day, I noticed that a bucket of tools were being sent up in the 
morning as expected along with other parts/tools etc … but then I noticed the 
same thing as the day before… an empty bucket except for two things in it …. 
toilet paper wrapped in plastic and the daily newspaper …. at that point I sure 
as shit didn’t ask (yes pun intended) ….. ;)
