Re: [WISPA] windmills and radio
Mike Hammett asked: On the turbine itself? Nay, on the same tower, near the turbine, but say 30 to 100 feet down. I think the warranty concern (in this case) has less to do with the turbine than the tower, which is designed for one purpose. I see a tower with a turbine on top, the manufacturer may see a windmill, a complete unit. Tristan WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] windmills and radio
We have a system up 90' on a 120' tower that has a 20 ro 30KW turbine with 3-17' blades. Have had it there several years and never had a problem from the wind generator On Fri, Feb 20, 2009 at 2:47 PM, Tristan Plumb w...@trstn.net wrote: I have heard rumours of collocating wind turbines and radio equipment, but no real solid examples. I am currently in discussion with the owners of a decent sized windmill and tower (about a megawatt, 200 ft) about doing just that. They are willing, but would like some more information to provide thier warranters and insurers. So, if any of you all have experence with windmills and fixed wireless (especially) or celluar installations I would like to hear your stories!

Re: [WISPA] windmills and radio
On the turbine itself? Well, the top part where the generator is moves, so it probably won't work. I've heard the fiberglass blades don't affect it, but I've also heard that they do. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com -- From: Tristan Plumb w...@trstn.net Sent: Friday, February 20, 2009 4:47 PM To: wireless@wispa.org Subject: [WISPA] windmills and radio I have heard rumours of collocating wind turbines and radio equipment, but no real solid examples.
