Re: [WISPA] NOGO's / 900hmz

[Matt Jenkins]

95% of my customers are on Canopy 900. With our pine tree coverage and 
rolling hills we have at least 40% NOGO's. These are the ones that have 
made it past our Google Earth / Radio Mobile team and we actually try to 
install. About 50% of the people that call us don't even get a visit to 
their site to try to install them. And we still successfully install at 
least 20 a month, more like 25 a month recently all year long.

Re: [WISPA] Wood Pole Towers (Was: Re: Trylon Titan Foundation Work)

[Matt Jenkins]

A tower on a hill is highly noticeable and the county has a very firm 
policy that the only towers allowed are the ones that look like fake 
trees. A wooden pole buried in the oak trees with a 900 antel omni on 
the top is highly unnoticeable and will probably never get reported by a 
local nutcase like an actual tower will.

Re: [WISPA] Wood Pole Towers (Was: Re: Trylon Titan Foundation Work)

[3-dB Networks]

Your local friendly telco would be able to help on the sourcing...

I was working with a telco last winter that installed a 65 foot pole for
us... 10 foot I think was underground... anyways he said the price on new
poles had gone through the roof lately... I think that pole cost them $1k or
so.

My point being... a Trylon tower or equivalent may be a better bet overall.
I would personally only choose a pole if I could get them for dirt cheap, or
they were already existing.  I think long run a tower is a better
investment.

My 2 cents...

Re: [WISPA] Mikrotik RouterOS version 3.15 released!

[D. Ryan Spott]

Dennis is correct,

this is NOT a tranzeo vs Mtik issue. This is specifically a Mtik issue 
that happens to affect Tranzeo CPE.

Re: [WISPA] tower

[Tom DeReggi]

Thats a good point Charles.
The question is... How temporary or permanent of a tower is Travis looking 
for?
Is the portabilty a requirement because of access issues to the target tower 
location?
Or because it is temporary? And how temporary? 3 months or 3 days?

You can go 60 feet with a telecoping mast, with light weight antennas in an 
emergency.
You can rent a Lift, that moves on four wheels (from local rental places), 
there are some that go 80 feet.

Hi,

I'm looking for a "portable" type tower that I can use in a remote
location. Something that I can just park in a field, run power to, and
put some antennas on. Something in the 60-80ft. tall range would be
ideal, but it also depends on price.

Any suggestions or better ideas?
