So are you looking to provide a muni Wi-Fi type setup?
I have used and deployed a few hundred Tranzeo radios... they seem to play
best with each other... there has been issues when mixing other clients with
them.
There is not going to be a central management system for them... which could

A friend is considering getting his tower certification, and it's
something I've been considering also.
I googled tower certification, but couldn't find the cert(s) that one
would need to get to safely/legally do so.
Any pointers?

Been talked about periodically on the list. The consensus seems to be
that most folks go to Comtrain:

WOW My favorite subject... :-)
In true life a tower certification really doesn't mean much. Under the
eye of OSHA the employer is responsible for saying who is properly
trained to climb a tower and perform the work at hand. While a
certificate from Comtrain or Gravitec shows that someone
Does anyone have any tips for promoting towers being available for lease other
than listing in the ASR and on site signage?

A few responses here:

Tranzeo APs (EN-500 series) does have a lot more management features
than the older Tranzeo units (TR-6000, TR-5a). You can also use StarOS
or Mikrotik APs and have all the centralized management and

Agreed that they are good CPEs. Though we've standardized on StarOS for our
clients, we still have a couple hundred Tranzeo TR-CPQ19 CPEs in use on our
StarOS APs (though we're slowly replacing them with StarOS units and
ebay-ing them).

When we climb towers to run new cat5 cable for a unit we're installing,
we've now taken to crimping the cat5 installing it into the enclosure
before we hoist it up. So we hoist an enclosure with a cat5 inserted into
it at the same time. Man does this save tower time...

I'd like 11n (both 2.4/5), but if I had to pick one or the other, 11a is
probably what we'll go with.

The only issue I've had with Tranzeo are the cover and seal they use for
the POE. We've followed their directions but have had issues with water
seeping into a few units. We now drill small holes in the bottom of the
cover to let them drain if needed. We got tired of climbing a tower to
Let me guess, you are torquing down the plastic cover until it can be
torqued down no more!
Use this method.. no tools required:
*With left hand; Press down cover, compressing the foam, until it
touches the unit. Perform this right next to where the stud comes
through the cover.
*With right
Only problem I've found with this is that eventually the foam gets worn out
and doesn't spring back and if the plastic cover is not flush with the
unit then it will leak as well. I've had similar issues to what David
described and have tried it how you describe, tightening down completely,
Ryan, so right on. I have had to drill this into my installers. It's a seal
not an engine block, you don't need to torque it down. However you have to get
it tight enough that ice sitting on top wont open it up. You also have to
admit that the new no adhesive seals are better.

My 6YO daughter disagrees with the no adhesive seals... She really,
really liked daddy's stickers. I occasionally peel evidence of this
off the rear window of my truck.
Now she plays with daddy's zip ties did you know a bag of 300 can be
zipped together by a 6 year old in less than 30
How about both?

Yeah those little adhesive knockouts for the screw hole made great black warts
at Halloween time. My kids used to stick one on their nose and the rest all
over their little hands as witches. That's great to know about the zip ties.
They also learned to use them (50+ at a time) to hold the
Well since I got beat up pretty bad it seems... I'll respond :-)
BTW if you read my last post... I was pretty clear Tranzeo radios are
okay... and can do the job just fine. In my experience though you will find
many more people that will curse their radios then praise their radios. I'm

I really like them for cpe. We have hundreds out there. The only thing
missing is a reset button :-).
I hate the ap's that I've used so far. Most work like crap when they get at
all busy. Even the newest software isn't helping much.
Think I'll stick with MT for my AP's. At least until I
