I lost a couple radios 
about the same time.   With the wind and the ice.  Strange that I could 
not get one of the radios to work on the tower.  Once it was on my bench
 it works fine.  Not sure its going back out or not.

It was the combination of wind and ice that got me.

Here we had to upgrade our Juniper´s router because of these exploit.
Juniper advertised all customers to update asap.

Re: [WISPA] Dealing with ice

2013-02-07 Thread Justin Wilson

RF armor shields and actual ice shields on the tower.  It doesn't take much.
Basically a grate hooked to the tower a foot or so above your antennas.  If
in doubt find the lower marker lights on the tower. They will most likely
have an ice guard above them.  Use that as a design.

Anyone mention Ice Shields yet ;).

In a ice storm about month ago, ice was so bad that a chuck came off the 
tower, some how ricocheted off a tower leg and went through the roof of 
the hut! Missed our equipment, but not AT&T's stuff!


Been at this site for 8 years and this is first time I've ever seen 
that! Went up there the day after the storm and it sounded like WWII 
with all the ice cracking and falling off the tower...needless to say we 
didn't stay around long!!!
