Re: [WISPA] Verify Link Analysis
I used to use those 7 ft. helium balloons as advertising when I had another business years ago. They had pretty good lift! Sounds like a good idea. Not sure how you could test a full speed link with a dish but an Omni could be put on it with a Mikrotik 411 board. Then you could use cat5 riser cable to tether it. At least you could see a signal that way. -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Aaron D.

Re: [WISPA] Verify Link Analysis
I have a 10'red balloon that we used to float a few years back for tower siting purposes. I wasn't able get too much equipment on that balloon and expect it to float. I tried it with an old map2 with rubber ducky and cat5 as the line and the balloon had a hard time rising. The calculation is 1 gram of weight to 1 liter of helium. You have to take into consideration the weight of the balloon and the weight of the rope. Cat is heavier than tether line. Good news is, a set of binoculars lets you at least spot it which is what we ended up doing.

Re: [WISPA] Rapid Link Awarded Approximately $2.8 Million Grant Fromthe California Advanced Services Fund (CASF)
Matt, Congradulation on Rapidlink's victory gaining grant assistance from CASF. That was clearly a big win, but also clearly positions you for an ARRA award.

The PDF showing the list of earth stations and exclusion zones looks useful, but is really just the start of a goose chase. The other ISPs in the states surrounding the earth station either have no 3.65 links registered, or the links fall outside of the zone. Had there been an ISP nearby that had gone through this, I would have checked with them. The call signs located at Andover when you go to register a location, or reference the PDF listing are not in the FCC ULS database. They are apparently FCC international bureau issued call signs and IB does not have a searchable online database and did not return my phone call. I can't find anything in the chamber of commerce business directory for Andover, the switchboard yellow pages for andover. The Andover earth station is owned by MCI/Verizon and I get the usually helpless script followers on the other end of the line, Sir, we just open up trouble tickets, or try calling this number in really poor english.

Re: [WISPA] Question re: WISP for sale
I also wanted to throw this in..

Re: [WISPA] Question re: WISP for sale
I'd point out that the best time to get a high valuation in a rural area is not likely going to be at the launch of a $7billion dollar grant program. Why buy other's outdated equipment when you can get the brand new state of the art for FREE? You are probably going to have to rely more on cash flow related methods of valuation. Instead, you might want to look at your finances, and see if your network could be leveraged to be combined with another's RUS loan/grant. For example, if the assets could be leveraged to make expanding from it more cost effective. Because then your value might be higher based on the additional grants that are enabled because your infrastructure helps qualify it.

Re: [WISPA] Question re: WISP for sale
I disagree with comments relating to X times annual revenue. I think the issue is more that buyers are realizing that in this market and economy X times revenue doesn't adequately valuate a company. A 3-4X times annual could still be achieved if the most of the gross revenue was actually monthly profit. Some businesses are in that situation. They have their gear paid for, most of their reoccuring costs are in-kind trade, etc. The problem is that isn't usually the case, which is why they get 1X valuations, if even that.. Usually what occurs is, a business has next to no profit, poor cashflow, and leased out the kazu for 3-5 years, and thus is tired out of working long hours for free. Further the buyer has to consider risk, and in this economy its uncertain whether business models will mature to success. I think you need to really look at your business to determine its profile, before you can begin to establish a worth or a method of valuating it. For example, Surely a company that owns a million dollars of gear outright is not going to be valued the sam as a company that has 3 years of leases remaining on their books for the same amount. You could also look at how to get rid of your primary costs. For example, maybe backhaul is one of the large expenses?

Re: [WISPA] Question re: WISP for sale
Well if you look at net profit that would show you are profitable, making payroll, etc and show growth, correct? On 7/17/09, Tom DeReggi wirelessn...@rapiddsl.net wrote: I disagree with comments relating to X times annual revenue. I think the issue is more that buyers are realizing that in this market and economy X times revenue doesn't adequately valuate a company. A 3-4X times annual could still be achieved if the most of the gross revenue was actually monthly profit. Some businesses are in that situation. They have their gear paid for, most of their reoccuring costs are in-kind trade, etc. The problem is that isn't usually the case, which is why they get 1X valuations, if even that.. Usually what occurs is, a business has next to no profit, poor cashflow, and leased out the kazu for 3-5 years, and thus is tired out of working long hours for free. Further the buyer has to consider risk, and in this economy its uncertain whether business models will mature to success. I think you need to really look at your business to determine its profile, before you can begin to establish a worth or a method of valuating it. For example, Surely a company that owns a million dollars of gear outright is not going to be valued the sam as a company that has 3 years of leases remaining on their books for the same amount. You could also look at how to get rid of your primary costs. For example, maybe backhaul is one of the large expenses? If so would a WISP that got a middle mile infrastructure grant, benefit by your network? The biggest problem I see with getting a high valuation on a 500 sub network is that there might not be enough subs to really cover the payroll of techs on the street that buyer would have to obtain to manage it.

Re: [WISPA] Question re: WISP for sale
So it would seem, but that is not the case. There are plenty of companies looking to acquire operators right now that are EBITDA positive. Unfortunately, too many operators that would normally be interested in a deal are hoping for a windfall thanks to ARRA. This means that the supply of available companies is low. I think I am going to be stuck buying companies not interested in ARRA. -Matt On Jul 17, 2009, at 5:02 PM, Tom DeReggi wrote: I'd point out that the best time to get a high valuation in a rural area is not likely going to be at the launch of a $7billion dollar grant program. Why buy other's outdated equipment when you can get the brand new state of the art for FREE? You are probably going to have to rely more on cash flow related methods of valuation. Instead, you might want to look at your finances, and see if your network could be leveraged to be combined with another's RUS loan/grant. For example, if the assets could be leveraged to make expanding from it more cost effective. Because then your value might be higher based on the additional grants that are enabled because your infrastructure helps qualify it.

Re: [WISPA] Dual Nstreme using XR3
Hi All! I've been lurking a while on the list, and knew some of you at last chat session. My solution of choice for this is using OSPF with unqueal costs, inverted on RX and TX: cost 1 - cost 2 cost 2 - cost 1 This will achieve a high real word throughput because TCP traffic generates the same amount of packets per second in either direction, and Wi-Fi based radios are very pps limited. You won't be able to get 25+25=50 Mbps Iperf tests, but it will give performance for dealing with real IP traffic. In case of any failures, all traffic will still flow via surviving radio. If you still need twice the throughput then, doing a 4 radio scenario would be fine: cost 1 - cost 2 cost 1 - cost 2 cost 2 - cost 1 cost 2 - cost 1 Links with equal costs will be balanced by OSPF.

Re: [WISPA] Question re: WISP for sale
I think it really needs to tie into the net you've seen (if any). 1 to 1.5 annual revenue seems to hold up pretty well. More if you have a great customer base (lots of high dollar businesses) vs. the average (mix of business but mostly resi). It's a business like most any other as far as profit margins and sales go. At least that's what we're seeing so far. The big exception to that is when a guy is going broke or just wants to get out, no matter what. Then these go for pennies on the dollar.

Interesting perspective, Matt.

There are plenty of companies looking to acquire operators right now that are EBITDA positive. Unfortunately, too many operators that would normally be interested in a deal are hoping for a windfall thanks to ARRA. This means that the supply of available companies is low. I think I am going to be stuck buying companies not interested in ARRA. -Matt On Jul 17, 2009, at 5:02 PM, Tom DeReggi wrote: I'd point out that the best time to get a high valuation in a rural area is not likely going to be at the launch of a $7billion dollar grant program. Why buy other's outdated equipment when you can get the brand new state of the art for FREE? You are probably going to have to rely more on cash flow related methods of valuation. Instead, you might want to look at your finances, and see if your network could be leveraged to be combined with another's RUS loan/grant. For example, if the assets could be leveraged to make expanding from it more cost effective. Because then your value might be higher based on the additional grants that are enabled because your infrastructure helps qualify it.

In addition, tower rights (or lack thereof) is a big consideration. -RickG On Fri, Jul 17, 2009 at 5:15 PM, Tom DeReggiwirelessn...@rapiddsl.net wrote: I disagree with comments relating to X times annual revenue. I think the issue is more that buyers are realizing that in this market and economy X times revenue doesn't adequately valuate a company. A 3-4X times annual could still be achieved if the most of the gross revenue was actually monthly profit. Some businesses are in that situation. They have their gear paid for, most of their reoccuring costs are in-kind trade, etc. The problem is that isn't usually the case, which is why they get 1X valuations, if even that.. Usually what occurs is, a business has next to no profit, poor cashflow, and leased out the kazu for 3-5 years, and thus is tired out of working long hours for free. Further the buyer has to consider risk, and in this economy its uncertain whether business models will mature to success. I think you need to really look at your business to determine its profile, before you can begin to establish a worth or a method of valuating it. For example, Surely a company that owns a million dollars of gear outright is not going to be valued the sam as a company that has 3 years of leases remaining on their books for the same amount. You could also look at how to get rid of your primary costs. For example, maybe backhaul is one of the large expenses? If so would a WISP that got a middle mile infrastructure grant, benefit by your network? The biggest problem I see with getting a high valuation on a 500 sub network is that there might not be enough subs to really cover the payroll of techs on the street that buyer would have to obtain to manage it.

Re: [WISPA] Dual Nstreme using XR3
Which makes an interesting dilemma: 1 20 MHz channel versus 2 10 MHz channels, TDD x FDD. My guess: TDD wil work better for short distances due to ACK timing, FDD for larger distance will perform better, but this is strongly traffic pattern dependent.

Re: [WISPA] Dual Nstreme using XR3
I have a 73 mile link using Mikrotik with SR5 cards using a 20mhz channel. I can get 26Mbps (compared with 30Mbps on a 10 mile link).
