for that type of project in that area I would say you are probably looking at $20 a ft mainly do to it being a small gig so your pricing will be  higher. If you had several Jobs like this you may be able to get  the pricing down some, or you catch it being close to other work they have. On 12

The highest I saw was $50/ft. $6-8 sounds like plowing prices. I’d expect at least $15/ft for HDD. Whoever’s doing it for $6-8/ft don’t lose that guy’s number. From: AF On Behalf Of Jim Bouse [Brazos WiFi] Sent: Thursday, December 22, 2022 10:27 AM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group
