In some areas we aren't yet a player and in others, WISPs have been a player
for several years.

Besides staying away from an AM tower, does anyone have any guidance as far
as mounting equipment, specifically POE equipment on one without problems
for us or the AM tower?
How do I keep AM RF out of my POE cables and my radios / antennas?
How do I ground my gear?
My initial thoughts are:
You'll want to isolate the power with an isocoupler.

The tower is the AM antenna correct? If you ground your gear to the tower,
aren't you connecting your gear directly to the antenna? It seems like if to
try and avoid RF you connect to the thing that is energized with RF it's a step
in the wrong direction.
Is the tower a grounded-base or
AFAIK, you bond all metal objects with the tower itself. You aren't going to
avoid the RF, so you make peace with it.
I am kind of curious, though, how they handle lightning and ESD on a hot tower.
They surely have a method because those transmitters aren't throw-away items.

The station engineer should be the lead information contact. If he is clueless
most AM stations have engineering firms on retainer.
Adding equipment to certain stations can change the antenna radiation pattern.
Obviously the FCC doesn't lie this. ;-)

That was my first thought too, the possible pattern change. The antenna might
have to be resurveyed after the install.

Unfortunately, it’s on the other side of the dish. You’ll have to take the
radome cover off to see which polarity it’s set for.

Patrick is correct, I was remembering wrong, the notches are on the
inside of the dish at the base of the LNB.

I was hoping the notches on the back were an indicator.
Thanks to all for the responses.

Of course they do. USF is part of TA96. It is not labeled tax
because it doesn't go through the Treasury and the General Fund, but

Make sure you take a mechanics mirror up with you if it is in an awkward

There are roughly 60 days left before the election. I doubt I could get
the local dog catcher candidate to take a policy position 60 days out
from the election, much less a complicated position. The election has
the nation polarized. In Ohio the race is neck and neck +/- a few
points.
I have just finished installing Speedtest Mini in our data center and I
would like some help testing it.
If you have a big pipe, it would be especially helpful to have your
feedback.
Thanks very much
