Uhh, and that's the same reason ISPs have been sued (admittedly un-documentable) for trying to make money off that idea... If you KNOW it's open, you invaded someone's privacy to figure that out, and there starts the whole argument all over again... -Original Message- From: [EMAIL

It really depends on the roof. If it's pretty flat then you'll likely have to get up there a ways. If it's sloped away from your antenna it may not take much. This, sir, will likely be a try it and see issue. If you're gonna press for a number though, I'd probably put up one of those 20 or

I think it's a great idea. One of the things I love about being in a small town is that the cops will check our doors for us. Sometimes we forget to lock the office and they'll leave us a nasty note and lock up for us. It helps me sleep a bit better :-) Marlon (509) 982-2181

Ryan, I would think that the vertical beam width of the antenna you choose would have something to do with it. Do a little trig and see if the signal hits the rooftop or clears the edge; throw in some safety factor. Also, calc the freznel zone at the edge of the roof. Just my gut
